rules
Build each screen like a dense poster collage with anchored hero blocks, floating motif clusters, and strong sectional framing that keeps everything legible through contour rather than emptiness.
Headlines are oversized and bubbly, metadata is carried in compact rounded chips, and action areas are separated with color bars or medallions instead of subtle typographic shifts.
High-density but controlled: decorative repetition is welcome as long as every content zone retains a clear bordered container and readable internal spacing.
layout
Use a poster-like 12-column desktop grid with one oversized hero column and adjacent stacked utility columns; collapse to 6 columns on tablet and a single column on mobile while preserving motif placement.
Desktop 1440+, tablet 768-1023, mobile 375-767 with cards stacking vertically and secondary sidebars moving below the primary story area.
Keep whitespace intentionally compressed; use short but consistent gutters so the composition feels packed and energetic without becoming crowded.
guidance
- Use decorative motifs as active structure, not merely wallpaper.
- Pair saturated fills with dark outlines so forms remain crisp.
- Keep illustration geometry simple and repeatable across components.
- Do not introduce realistic gradients or ambient shadows.
- Do not mute the palette into generic pastel SaaS tones.
- Do not leave large empty neutral areas that break the compressed poster rhythm.

# Superflat Pop Graphics
## Overview
A UI language translating Superflat art into interface form through stacked iconography, candy-bright chroma, crisp outlines, and deliberate depthlessness. It treats screens as poster-fields where cheerful symbols, flower medallions, and compressed layers create intensity without physical realism.
### Values
- graphic immediacy over subtle skeuomorphic depth
- iconic repetition and character-like motifs as navigation cues
- joyful saturation balanced by rigorous edge control
### Anti-Values
- soft glassmorphism and atmospheric blur
- neutral corporate minimalism
### Visual Character
- Large circular flower medallions and smile-face badges repeat across panels as flat vector ornaments with hard edges and no realistic shading.
- Interface sections are framed by thick ink-dark outlines and offset sticker-like color blocks that create separation without using box-shadow depth.
- Type and UI chips sit on loud candy-color rectangles, dots, and rounded capsules layered tightly so the screen feels compressed and poster-like rather than spacious.
- Illustrative motifs use uniform fills, concentric rings, and simple facial geometry to keep every decorative element visibly two-dimensional.
## Colors
Use the YAML color tokens as the normative palette. The prose below names the roles agents should preserve when generating UI.
| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| primary | `#ff2d96` |
| secondary | `#20d6ff` |
| accent | `#ffe14d` |
| background | `#fff7fb` |
| surface | `#ffffff` |
| text | `#131019` |
| muted | `#6f6580` |
| border | `#151120` |
| error | `#ff5a5f` |
| success | `#18c47d` |
| warning | `#ffb21a` |
| info | `#3b82f6` |

## Layout
### Spacing Tokens
- **Base**: `8px`
- **Xs**: `4px`
- **Sm**: `8px`
- **Md**: `12px`
- **Lg**: `16px`
- **Xl**: `24px`
- **2xl**: `32px`
- **3xl**: `48px`
- **4xl**: `64px`
### Grid
Use a poster-like 12-column desktop grid with one oversized hero column and adjacent stacked utility columns; collapse to 6 columns on tablet and a single column on mobile while preserving motif placement.
### Breakpoints
Desktop 1440+, tablet 768-1023, mobile 375-767 with cards stacking vertically and secondary sidebars moving below the primary story area.
### Whitespace
Keep whitespace intentionally compressed; use short but consistent gutters so the composition feels packed and energetic without becoming crowded.
## Elevation & Depth
### Shadows
- **Sm**: 4px 4px 0 #151120
- **Md**: 8px 8px 0 #151120
- **Lg**: 12px 12px 0 #151120
## Shapes
### Rounded
- **None**: `0px`
- **Sm**: `10px`
- **Md**: `18px`
- **Lg**: `30px`
- **Full**: `9999px`
### Surfaces
- **Treatment**: flat
- **Card Style**: Bright white cards with solid ink outlines, internal color bands, and sticker-like decorative badges instead of translucent layers.
- **Bg Pattern**: dots
### Borders
- **Default Width**: 3px
- **Accent Width**: 6px
- **Style**: solid
- **Character**: Borders behave like manga ink lines: blunt, dark, assertive, and present on every major shape.
## Components
### Composition
Build each screen like a dense poster collage with anchored hero blocks, floating motif clusters, and strong sectional framing that keeps everything legible through contour rather than emptiness.
### Hierarchy
Headlines are oversized and bubbly, metadata is carried in compact rounded chips, and action areas are separated with color bars or medallions instead of subtle typographic shifts.
### Density
High-density but controlled: decorative repetition is welcome as long as every content zone retains a clear bordered container and readable internal spacing.
### Signature Patterns
- Every major card uses a heavy dark outline plus an offset pseudo-element color shadow, making the interface read like stacked printed stickers rather than soft floating panels.
- Decorative flower or smile motifs appear as repeated circular modules built from concentric shapes and placed at corners, headers, and empty gaps to create rhythmic visual compression.
- Buttons, tabs, and stat pills use thick rounded capsules with all-caps micro labels and contrasting fill colors so controls feel like collectible character badges.
- Section headers include full-width color ribbons with overlaid badges or counters, replacing conventional minimalist dividers with loud graphic separators.
## shadcn/ui Usage
When the target app uses shadcn/ui, copy DESIGN.md with shadcn instead of the plain DESIGN.md. It contains the same Katagami design-language source plus the shadcn/ui primitives, imports, theme variables, component recipes, and preview-shot guidance.
DESIGN.md with shadcn: `/language/en-019da107-13f6-75d1-a1b9-559dfb49e41c/DESIGN.with-shadcn.md`.
The shadcn page also exposes optional machine-readable files for automation, but the human-facing handoff is DESIGN.md with shadcn.
Install recommended primitives with `npx shadcn@latest add button card input textarea select dialog sheet tabs badge separator checkbox switch slider tooltip dropdown-menu table`.
Use these primitives in shadcn apps:
- button
- card
- input
- textarea
- select
- dialog
- sheet
- tabs
- badge
- separator
- checkbox
- switch
- slider
- tooltip
- dropdown-menu
- table
Implementation rule for agents: import shadcn primitives from `@/components/ui/*`, apply the generated CSS variables first, then compose the language-specific recipes from the companion MD. Katagami remains the source of truth; shadcn names are the implementation surface.
## Do's and Don'ts
- Do Use decorative motifs as active structure, not merely wallpaper.
- Do Pair saturated fills with dark outlines so forms remain crisp.
- Do Keep illustration geometry simple and repeatable across components.
- Don't Do not introduce realistic gradients or ambient shadows.
- Don't Do not mute the palette into generic pastel SaaS tones.
- Don't Do not leave large empty neutral areas that break the compressed poster rhythm.

# Superflat Pop Graphics shadcn/ui Components
Artifact: `component-recipes-v1`
Author: `katagami-ui-projection`
Language ID: `en-019da107-13f6-75d1-a1b9-559dfb49e41c`
Slug: `superflat-pop-graphics`
## Intent
A UI language translating Superflat art into interface form through stacked iconography, candy-bright chroma, crisp outlines, and deliberate depthlessness. It treats screens as poster-fields where cheerful symbols, flower medallions, and compressed layers create intensity without physical realism.
## Required primitives
- button
- card
- input
- textarea
- select
- dialog
- sheet
- tabs
- badge
- separator
- checkbox
- switch
- slider
- tooltip
- dropdown-menu
- table
Install with `npx shadcn@latest add button card input textarea select dialog sheet tabs badge separator checkbox switch slider tooltip dropdown-menu table`.
## Token cues

"error": "#ff5a5f",

}
Typography:
{
"heading_font": "Baloo 2",
"body_font": "Nunito",
"mono_font": "IBM Plex Mono",
"base_size": "16px",
"scale_ratio": 1.25,
"line_height": 1.5,
"letter_spacing": "0.01em",
"google_fonts_url": "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Baloo+2:wght@500;600;700;800&family=Nunito:wght@400;500;600;700;800&family=IBM+Plex+Mono:wght@400;500;600&display=swap"
}
## Visual character to preserve
- Large circular flower medallions and smile-face badges repeat across panels as flat vector ornaments with hard edges and no realistic shading.
- Interface sections are framed by thick ink-dark outlines and offset sticker-like color blocks that create separation without using box-shadow depth.
- Type and UI chips sit on loud candy-color rectangles, dots, and rounded capsules layered tightly so the screen feels compressed and poster-like rather than spacious.
- Illustrative motifs use uniform fills, concentric rings, and simple facial geometry to keep every decorative element visibly two-dimensional.

}
## Signature component recipes
### Button
Use `Button` for primary, secondary, outline, and ghost actions. Primary actions must expose the language's strongest contrast pair, while secondary and ghost actions should preserve the surface treatment instead of falling back to default neutral SaaS styling.
### Card
Use `Card`, `CardHeader`, `CardContent`, `CardFooter`, and `CardAction` as the main composition frame. Cards should demonstrate the language's surface, border, hierarchy, and density rules rather than appearing as generic rounded rectangles.
### Input and Textarea
Use `Input` and `Textarea` with visible focus rings, field labels, validation states, and the language's rhythm. Forms should show real product content, not placeholder-only controls.
### Select, Tabs, and Table
Use `Select`, `Tabs`, and `Table` to prove navigation, filtering, and dense data states. The table should show row rhythm, separators, hover/focus states, and an empty or status state when the language calls for it.
### Dialog and Sheet
Use `Dialog` for centered decisions and `Sheet` for contextual editing. Both should inherit the language's spacing, border, overlay, and motion rules.
## Preview shots
- `application-shell`: dashboard or workspace shell with navigation, cards, forms, and state badges.
- `detail-editor`: focused editing flow using input, textarea, select, switch/checkbox, dialog or sheet, and action buttons.
- `data-operations`: table-heavy operational view with tabs, dropdown menu affordances, badges, and destructive/empty states.
- Each preview shot must include a renderable `scene` payload with concrete headline, description, actions, and rows/fields/stats for the UI preview.
## Implementation contract
- Start from local `ui/src/components/ui` shadcn-style primitives; do not create a second component system.
- Apply `/katagami/shadcn/superflat-pop-graphics/registry-theme.json` variables, then use these recipes for composition and state design.
- Preserve Katagami token names as source metadata; shadcn semantic names are only the export surface.
- Do: Use decorative motifs as active structure, not merely wallpaper.; Pair saturated fills with dark outlines so forms remain crisp.; Keep illustration geometry simple and repeatable across components.
- Do not: Do not introduce realistic gradients or ambient shadows.; Do not mute the palette into generic pastel SaaS tones.; Do not leave large empty neutral areas that break the compressed poster rhythm.
## Copy-paste component example
This generated starter proves the import shape. Production Katagami agents should replace it with a language-specific product composition.
```tsx
import { Badge } from "@/components/ui/badge";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";
import {
Card,
CardContent,
CardDescription,
CardFooter,
CardHeader,
CardTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/card";
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input";
import { Tabs, TabsList, TabsTrigger } from "@/components/ui/tabs";
export function SuperflatPopGraphicsShadcnKit() {
return (
<section className="grid gap-4 rounded-[var(--radius)] border bg-background p-4 text-foreground">
<div className="flex items-start justify-between gap-4">
<div>
<Badge variant="outline">shadcn/ui</Badge>
<h2 className="mt-3 text-2xl font-semibold tracking-tight">Superflat Pop Graphics</h2>
<p className="mt-1 max-w-xl text-sm text-muted-foreground">
Use the Katagami registry theme, then compose these shadcn primitives
with the language-specific component recipes.

## Layout notes
{
"grid": "Use a poster-like 12-column desktop grid with one oversized hero column and adjacent stacked utility columns; collapse to 6 columns on tablet and a single column on mobile while preserving motif placement.",
"breakpoints": "Desktop 1440+, tablet 768-1023, mobile 375-767 with cards stacking vertically and secondary sidebars moving below the primary story area.",
"whitespace": "Keep whitespace intentionally compressed; use short but consistent gutters so the composition feels packed and energetic without becoming crowded."
