narrative: |
  renault.com is built on a pure-white canvas (rgb(255, 255, 255)).
  The system uses rgb(101, 215, 208) as the accent for primary actions and brand signals.
  Sharp 0px corners on CTAs — architectural restraint, engineering precision alongside RenaultGroupAH-Variable as the primary typeface.

> Extracted automatically by Clone Architect from https://renault.com
> Date: 2026-05-30
> Viewport: Desktop 1440x900 + Mobile 390x844
> Every value in this file comes from real getComputedStyle() — no approximation.

> **🤖 TL;DR for AI agents** (read this first — saves you scanning the full doc):
>
> - **Canvas**: `rgb(255, 255, 255)` is the page background. Every component composits against this.
> - **Accent**: `rgb(101, 215, 208)` for primary CTAs ONLY. Never decorative.
> - **Body type**: 16px (token: `typography.body`). Default for ALL text not in a heading role.
> - **Section rhythm**: 56px between major bands. Card padding: 32px.
> - **Default radius**: 4px on buttons/inputs. Pills (`9999px`) only for icon-buttons or status chips.
> - **Forbidden**: Do NOT introduce heavy box-shadows — this system relies on borders for separation
>
> **Before generating UI**: import this DESIGN.md, scan §2 (Color Palette) + §4 (Components) + §10 (Agent Guide). Skip §11–12 unless extending.

## 1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere

renault.com adopts the classic pure-white canvas (`#ffffff`) — a deliberate choice that recedes into transparency, letting typography, color and product imagery carry the entire visual weight. 

Typography is anchored in **RenaultGroupAH-Variable**. Headlines use weight 700 for confident, assertive presence — the brand wants to be heard. Negative letter-spacing at display sizes (-1.8px at 30px) compresses headlines into engineered blocks, dense and precise. 

Body text reads in Pure Black (`#000000`) (contrast ratio 100.0:1, well above WCAG AA). **#65d7d0** (`#65d7d0`) is the single high-saturation color in the system — it earns its presence only on interactive elements, making CTAs and links the unmistakable focal points against the otherwise neutral palette. Shadow is absent by design — depth is conveyed through translucent borders and luminance steps rather than light simulation. 
Motion design uses smooth easing curves for polished state transitions. 

**Key Characteristics:**
- Background: Pure White (`#ffffff`)
- Primary typeface: RenaultGroup-Variable
- Accent: #65d7d0 (`#65d7d0`)
- Display: 30px weight 700, letter-spacing -1.8px
- Custom fonts loaded: RenaultGroup-Variable, RenaultGroupAH-Variable

## 5. Layout Principles

### Layout Type
**hero + sections**

### Grid
Single column, centered content

### Max Width
972px

### Spacing System
Compact spacing — information density prioritized

| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| xxs | 2px |
| xs | 8px |
| sm | 12px |
| md | 12.8px |
| base | 16px |
| lg | 32px |
| xl | 40px |
| 2xl | 56px |
| 3xl | 60px |

### Border Radius Scale
| Name | Value | Use |
|------|-------|-----|
| None | 0px | No rounding |
| Xs | 4px | Tiny corners (badges, micro elements) |
| Sm | 4px | Buttons, inputs, small elements |
| Md | 16px | Cards, containers |
| Lg | 16px | Large rounded elements, pill segments |
| Xl | 24px | Category strips, featured containers |
| Full | 9999px | Pills, avatars, circular elements |

### Shape Language

| Component | Border Radius |
|-----------|---------------|
| Buttons | `0px` |
| Cards & Containers | `16px` |
| Navigation | `none` |
| CTA Banners | `0px` |
| Page Body | `0px` |

**Shape Personality**: Generously Rounded — Soft, friendly corners (8px+). Approachable, consumer-facing feel.

**Full Radius Spectrum**: 0px, 4px, 16px, 24px, 100px (from `allBorderRadii` scan)


## 5b. Spacing Rhythm Names

*Named spacing tokens with explicit use cases. Use these names in YOUR code instead of raw pixels for consistency.*

| Name | Value | Use case |
|------|-------|----------|
| **hero** | `60px` | Top/bottom of full-bleed hero sections |
| **section** | `40px` | Between major bands (color change, content shift) |
| **subsection** | `32px` | Within a section, between content groups |
| **card** | `12.8px` | Card padding, list-item spacing |
| **compact** | `12px` | Form fields, tight clusters, badge padding |
| **micro** | `8px` | Icon-text gap, tag inner padding |

**Agent rule**: NEVER hardcode raw pixel values for spacing in generated UI. Always reference these named tokens (`spacing-rhythm.section`, etc.).

## 5c. Widget & Structure Library

Structural patterns extracted from the page DOM — these are the **blueprints** an agent should follow to reproduce the page architecture (not just CSS values).

**5/8 structural patterns detected.**

### Hero Pattern

- **Composition:** centered — Centered composition — heading + subheading + CTAs stacked vertically, content centered horizontally. Common for SaaS marketing pages.
- **Viewport coverage:** 119px tall (not full-viewport)
- **Heading:** "Renault Group" — 30px left-aligned
- **CTAs:** 2 (primary: "Accéder au contenu principal")
- **Clone instruction:** Reproduce the **centered** layout. Use the heading font-size token at the documented size. No imagery needed for hero — text-driven.

### Navigation Pattern

- **Position:** static (scrolls with page)
- **Layout:** logo-left-links-left — Logo and links both on the left (CTAs typically right)
- **Height:** 80px
- **Logo:** ✓ present
- **Nav links:** 2 primary items
- **CTAs in nav:** 0 (no buttons — links only)
- **Search:** ✓ search input visible in nav
- **Clone instruction:** Build a static logo left links left navigation. Link-only — no button styling needed.

### Card Grid Pattern

- **Card count:** 4 cards detected
- **Columns (desktop):** 1-up grid
- **Card dimensions:** 1184×617px (aspect 1.92:1)
- **Gap:** 0px between cards
- **Content:** ✓ image
- **Image position:** top
- **Clone instruction:** Build a 1-column grid (desktop) with cards at ~1.92:1 aspect ratio. Each card has an image at the top.

### CTA Banner Pattern

- **Banner count:** 6
- **Position:** multiple
- **Visual treatment:** ✓ contrasting background
- **Primary CTA text:** "Actualités du Groupe285 articlesNouveaux articles"
- **Clone instruction:** Place multiple CTA banners across page sections. Use contrasting solid background.

### Footer Pattern

- **Columns:** 6
- **Links:** 32 total
- **Height:** 1106px
- **Includes:** ✗ no newsletter | ✓ social icons |  
- **Clone instruction:** Build a 6-column footer with ~5 links per column, social media links.

## 6. Depth & Elevation

| Level | Treatment | Use |
|-------|-----------|-----|
| Flat (Level 0) | No shadow | Page background, content blocks |

**Shadow Philosophy**: Flat design — no shadows used. Borders and spacing define structure.

## 7. Motion & Interaction

### Dominant Easing Curves

| Curve | Semantic Name |
|-------|---------------|
| `cubic-bezier(0.4,0,0.2,1)` | Material Standard — Balanced |
| `ease` | CSS ease — Default |
| `ease-out` | Ease Out — Decelerating |

### Duration Scale

| Value | Tier | Typical Use |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `150ms` | Fast | Hover states, micro-interactions |
| `200ms` | Normal | Panel open/close, navigation |
| `300ms` | Normal | Panel open/close, navigation |

### Copy-Paste Transition Snippets

**All Props**
```css
transition: 0.15s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);
```

**Color / Background**
```css
transition: color 0.15s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1), background-color 0.15s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1), border-color 0.15s cub...;
```

**Opacity**
```css

## 8. Do's and Don'ts

### Do
- Use RenaultGroupAH-Variable as the primary typeface — it defines the brand personality
- Use negative letter-spacing (-1.8px) at display sizes for compressed, editorial headlines
- Use #65d7d0 (`#65d7d0`) as the primary accent — it's the brand's signature interactive color
- Use 16px border-radius on buttons — the standard corner rounding for interactive elements
- Apply 56px padding inside cards — matches the design system's content breathing room
- Use 16px border-radius on cards — consistent with the grid card corners
- Maintain nav height at 80px — consistent vertical space for the navigation bar
- Keep the hero centered and text-driven — no decorative media, typography carries the message
- Include exactly 2 CTAs in the hero (primary + secondary) — this design pattern is multi-action, not single-purpose
- Include a search input directly in the nav — discoverability is a primary UX value here
- Each card includes a top image — imagery is part of the card identity, not optional
- Repeat the primary CTA across 6 banner sections — conversion paths are layered, not single
- Build a content-dense footer (6 columns, ~32 links) — this site treats the footer as a sitemap, not an afterthought

### Don't
- Don't substitute with generic sans-serif or serif — the custom font carries the brand
- Don't increase letter-spacing on headings — the type is designed to run tight at scale
- Don't introduce additional saturated accent colors — the palette is intentionally controlled
- Don't collapse or hide the nav on scroll without an explicit scroll-triggered animation — the design uses fixed nav presence
- Don't add hero illustrations or photos — they'll break the typographic restraint
- Don't make the nav sticky — this design lets it scroll away to maximize content focus
- Don't put a CTA button in the nav — this design uses links only at the top


## 7b. Enforceable Brand Rules

*Structured Do/Don't with reasoning and validation tests. Agents can programmatically verify generated UI.*

```yaml
rules:
  - id: brand-canvas-001
    type: do
    rule: "Always use the page background `rgb(255, 255, 255)` as the base canvas"
    why: "Every component is designed to composit against this exact tone"
    test: "document.body.style.backgroundColor === 'rgb(255, 255, 255)'"
  - id: brand-accent-001
    type: do
    rule: "Reserve `rgb(101, 215, 208)` for primary CTAs and brand-mark signals only"
    why: "Single chromatic assertion device — overuse dilutes meaning"
    test: "querySelectorAll('[style*=\"rgb(101, 215, 208)\"]').length <= 3 per fold"
  - id: brand-depth-001
    type: dont
    rule: "Do NOT introduce drop shadows on cards or sections"
    why: "Containment is achieved via borders, not elevation — adding shadows breaks the depth contract"
    test: "getComputedStyle(card).boxShadow === 'none'"
```

## 9. Responsive Behavior

### Breakpoints
| Name | Width | Key Changes |
|------|-------|-------------|
| Mobile | 400px | Single column, compact spacing |
| Mobile Large | 640px | Expanded mobile layout |
| Mobile Large | 767px | Expanded mobile layout |
| Tablet | 1023px | Multi-column grids begin |
| Desktop | 1260px | Full feature layout |
| Large Desktop | 1440px | Maximum content width |

### Token Diff — Desktop vs Mobile

| Element | Property | Desktop | Mobile |
|---------|----------|---------|--------|
| body | line-height | `22.4px` | `19.2px` |
| nav | padding | `0px 40px` | `16px` |
| hero | padding | `151px 0px 32px` | `151px 12px 32px` |
| hero | height | `844px` | `697px` |
| button | font-size | `12px` | `16px` |
| button | width | `36px` | `auto` |
| card | padding | `56px` | `24px` |
| card | width | `1144px` | `326px` |

### Collapsing Strategy
- Navigation: horizontal links → hamburger menu on mobile
- Cards: multi-column → stacked vertical on mobile
- Footer: multi-column → stacked single column on mobile

### Touch Targets
- Buttons: 0px padding
- Navigation: adequate spacing between items
- Interactive elements: minimum 44px touch target recommended

### Collapsing Narrative

How the structural patterns adapt from desktop to mobile (extracted from both viewport extractions):

- **Hero CTAs:** 2 on desktop → 1 on mobile (secondary CTAs dropped on small screens).
- **Footer columns collapse:** 6 columns (desktop) → 2 columns (mobile).

## 9b. Visual Tone & Photography

**Tone:** Photography-driven

The site is dominated by photography (JPG/WebP). Photos carry the brand voice as much as the typography. Use authentic, brand-appropriate imagery — generic stock will degrade quality.

**Canonical Brand Image (OG):**
- https://assets.renaultgroup.com/uploads/2025/06/Logo-RG-yoast.png (1200×1200px)
  *This is the image shown when the site is shared on social media — represents the brand visual essence.*

**Hero Image (above-fold dominant visual):**
- Aspect: 2.82:1 (ultra-wide cinematic)
- Rendered size: 2880×1020px
- *Use this aspect ratio + composition for your clone's hero — mimicking the proportion preserves the visual hierarchy.*

**Aspect Ratio Distribution:**
- Landscape (1.15–2.3): 6 (29%)
- Portrait (<0.87): 6 (29%)
- Square (0.87–1.15): 8 (38%)
- Ultra-wide (>2.3): 1 (5%)

**Media Format Mix:**
- JPG: 18 (typically photographic content)
- SVG: 4 (icons, illustrations, decorative geometry)

**Average rendered image size:** 636×469px
**Above-fold image count:** 5 / 21

**Decorative Patterns Detected:**
- 2 multi-stop linear gradients (mesh-like, 3+ color stops) — the brand leans on rich color transitions for visual depth
- 1 large decorative SVG shape (≥200×200px, non-icon) — likely blob/illustration accents
- **Glassmorphism** detected (`backdrop-filter: blur`) — layered transparent surfaces with blur, modern OS-like aesthetic

**Clone instruction for decorative work:** Glassmorphism is a brand signature — use `backdrop-filter: blur(20px)` on overlapping surfaces.

**Imagery Guidance for clones:**
- Source authentic photography (or licensed stock that matches the brand mood) — placeholders will visibly degrade the clone.
- Match the dominant aspect ratio (see above) so card grids and hero compositions hold.

## 10. Agent Prompt Guide

### Quick Reference
- Background: Pure White (`#ffffff`)
- Primary text: Pure Black (`#000000`)
- Accent: #65d7d0 (`#65d7d0`)
- Border: Medium Gray (`#978b7f`)
- Font: RenaultGroupAH-Variable
- Body: 16px weight 400

### Example Component Prompts
- "Create a hero section on Pure White background (#ffffff). Headline at 30px RenaultGroupAH-Variable weight 700, line-height 0.67, letter-spacing -1.8px, color #000000."
- "Create the primary CTA button: `#65d7d0` background, `#ffffff` text, 9999px border-radius, 9px 18px padding, 700 weight, RenaultGroupAH-Variable font."
- "Design a card on `transparent` background. Border: none. Radius: 16px. Shadow: none. Padding: 56px."
- "Build navigation: relative on `#ffffff`. RenaultGroupAH-Variable 16px weight 400 for links."

### Iteration Guide
1. **Canvas**: Set the light canvas to Pure White (`#ffffff`) — every component is composited against this exact base.
2. **Typography**: All type in RenaultGroupAH-Variable, weight range 200–700. Never exceed 700 — heavier weights break the brand's tonal restraint.
3. **Accent**: #65d7d0 (`#65d7d0`) is the sole interactive color. On hover → Red (`#e60000`). Use CSS transitions, not opacity/brightness filters.
4. **Motion**: All transitions use `cubic-bezier(0.4,0,0.2,1)`. Never use linear for UI transitions — preserve the brand's easing personality.
5. **Shape**: CTAs at `0px`, cards at `16px`. Apply border-radius from the extracted scale only — don't invent intermediate values.
6. **Spacing**: Use the `--ca-space-*` token scale (8px–40px). All padding, margin, and gap values are multiples from this scale — no magic numbers.
7. **Tokens**: Import from §11 CSS Export (`--ca-*` vars). Never hardcode hex values — always reference a token so theming remains consistent.

## 13. Page Structure Skeleton

*The actual layout the source site uses. Reproduce these sections in order to match the site structure.*

```

**Agent rule**: rebuild sections in this order (sorted by vertical position). Match the layout primitive (grid N-col / flex direction / block).


## 14. Copy Library (Real Content from Source)

*Actual text content extracted from the live page. Use these strings verbatim when reproducing the site — they carry the brand voice.*

```yaml
copy:
  section-headings:
    - "Toutes nos actualités par thématiques"
    - "Les 3 piliers
de notre stratégie
de développement durable"
  sub-headings:
    - "Nos offres d'emploi"
    - "Document d’enregistrement universel 2025"
  ctas:
    - "FR
Choisir une langue"
    - "ON
OFF"
    - "Groupe"
    - "Précèdent"
    - "Découvrez notre magazine"
    - "En savoir plus"
  navigation:
    - "Accéder au contenu principal"
    - "RNO 29,59 €
-0,27 %"
    - "Renault Group"
    - "Presse"
    - "Groupe"
    - "Nos marques"
    - "Responsabilité"
    - "Investisseurs"
    - "Carrières"
    - "Alpine Cars Events"
  footer-links:
    - "Groupe"
    - "Plan stratégique « FutuREady »
10.03.2026"
    - "Date de publication:
18 mars 2026

Document d’enregistrement"
    - "Alpine Cars Events"
    - "Politique de confidentialité"
```

**Agent rule**: reuse these exact strings when generating UI. Do NOT translate or rephrase — brand voice is preserved through the original wording.


## 15. Asset Inventory (Image Roles & Ratios)

*Image inventory classified by role and aspect ratio. When reproducing the site, allocate this number of assets per role.*

```yaml
assets:
  hero:
    count: 5
    avg-ratio: 2.05
    common-aspect: "~16:9 landscape"
  product:
    count: 5
    avg-ratio: 0.99
    common-aspect: "~1:1 square"
    sample-alts:
      - "Document d’enregistrement universel 2025 image illustrative"
  thumbnail:
    count: 3
    avg-ratio: 1.01
    common-aspect: "~1:1 square"
```

**Agent rule**: when generating placeholder images, match these counts and aspect ratios. Use neutral placeholder backgrounds for `product` (e.g. `#f5f5f5`), full-color photography hints for `hero` and `editorial`.


## 16. Component HTML Templates

*Suggested HTML markup for reproducing the key components — based on what was detected in the source DOM.*

### Button (primary action)
```html
<button class="btn btn-primary">
  FR
Choisir une langue
</button>
```
_Source pattern detected: padding `0px` · radius `0px` · weight `700`_

### Generic Card
```html
<div class="card">
  <!-- content -->
</div>
```
_Source pattern detected: padding `56px` · radius `16px` · shadow `none`_

**Agent rule**: use these markup skeletons as the structural baseline. Apply tokens from §2-3 for visual styling.


## 12. Known Extraction Gaps

*Auto-detected limitations of this extraction — understand before building:*

- **Sparse component extraction** — fewer than 5 component types detected. Highly dynamic sections (modals, datepickers, carousels) require interaction to render and are not captured in a static pass.

## 12. Known Gaps & Confidence

Explicit list of what this extraction could NOT capture. Agents should not invent values for these — either skip the feature or use the documented baseline + heuristic fallback.

| Category | What's missing | Fallback strategy |
|----------|----------------|-------------------|
| **Form inputs** | No text input fields detected on this page | Use the documented border-radius + accent border on focus; 12-16px padding inside |

### Per-section confidence
