# Design System — spacex.com
> Extracted automatically by Clone Architect from https://spacex.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(0, 0, 0)` is the page background. Every component composits against this.
> - **Accent**: `N/A` for primary CTAs ONLY. Never decorative.
> - **Body type**: 16px (token: `typography.body`). Default for ALL text not in a heading role.
> - **Section rhythm**: 40px between major bands. Card padding: 24px.
> - **Default radius**: 8px 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
spacex.com commits fully to dark-mode as the native medium, not as a toggled alternative. The canvas is a near-pure-black surface (`#000000`) where surfaces are layered through stepped luminance — each elevated level is slightly less dark than the one beneath it, creating depth without color shifts.
Typography is anchored in **D-DIN**. Headlines run at a remarkably light weight (0) — restraint over assertion, creating an editorial calm that invites reading rather than demanding it.
Body text reads in Light Gray (`#f0f0fa`) (contrast ratio 94.6:1, well above WCAG AA). Shadow is absent by design — depth is conveyed through borders, spacing, and color differentiation rather than light simulation.
Motion design uses smooth easing curves for polished state transitions.
**Key Characteristics:**
- Background: Pure Black (`#000000`)
- Primary typeface: D-DIN
- Primary text: Light Gray (`#f0f0fa`)
- Accent: Medium Gray (`#808080`)
- Custom fonts loaded: D-DIN, D-DIN-Bold, Roboto Mono
## 2. Color Palette & Roles

## 4b. Component Behaviors (State Matrix)
### Interaction State Narrative
- **Button**:
- **focus:** bg rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) → rgba(12, 12, 12, 0.514)
*State transitions extracted via Playwright simulation — exact values in the YAML matrix below.*
```yaml
component-behaviors:
button:
default:
bg: "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)"
fg: "rgb(240, 240, 250)"
border: "1px solid rgba(240, 240, 250, 0.35)"
focus:
bg: "rgba(12, 12, 12, 0.514)"
fg: "rgb(240, 240, 250)"
border: "1px solid rgba(240, 240, 250, 0.35)"
link:
default:
bg: "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)"
fg: "rgb(0, 0, 238)"
card:
default:
bg: "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)"
fg: "rgb(240, 240, 250)"
navLink:
default:
bg: "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)"
fg: "rgb(0, 0, 238)"
footerLink:
default:
bg: "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)"
fg: "rgb(0, 0, 238)"
```
**Agent usage**: Validate generated components against this matrix. If your output's `:hover` state changes properties not listed here, you are off-brand.
## 4c. Component Vocabulary (Closed System)
*This brand uses ONLY the following component vocabulary. Introducing new variants without justification breaks the system's tonal coherence.*
### Buttons
- **3 shape(s)** in this system: `Ghost`, `Subtle`, `Pill`
- **DO NOT introduce new buttons variants** without justification
### Cards & Containers
- **1 shape(s)** in this system: `Standard Card`
- **DO NOT introduce new cards & containers variants** without justification
### Navigation
- **1 shape(s)** in this system: `Main Nav`
- **DO NOT introduce new navigation variants** without justification
## 5. Layout Principles
### Layout Type
**top-nav + content**
### Grid
Single column, centered content
### Max Width
1200px
### Spacing System
Compact spacing — information density prioritized
| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| xxs | 2px |
| xs | 3px |
| sm | 6px |
| md | 10px |
| base | 16px |
| lg | 24px |
| xl | 30px |
| 2xl | 40px |
| 3xl | 64px |
### Border Radius Scale
| Name | Value | Use |
|------|-------|-----|
| None | 0px | No rounding |
| Xs | 4px | Tiny corners (badges, micro elements) |
| Sm | 8px | Buttons, inputs, small elements |
| Md | 8px | Cards, containers |
| Lg | 8px | Large rounded elements, pill segments |
| Xl | 32px | Category strips, featured containers |
| Full | 9999px | Pills, avatars, circular elements |
### Shape Language
| Component | Border Radius |
|-----------|---------------|
| Buttons | `0px` |
| Cards & Containers | `0px` |
| Navigation | `none` |
| Page Body | `0px` |
**Shape Personality**: Sharp & Angular — No rounding. Precise, editorial, enterprise feel.
**Full Radius Spectrum**: 4px, 8px, 32px (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** | `64px` | Top/bottom of full-bleed hero sections |
| **section** | `30px` | Between major bands (color change, content shift) |
| **subsection** | `24px` | Within a section, between content groups |
| **card** | `10px` | Card padding, list-item spacing |
| **compact** | `6px` | Form fields, tight clusters, badge padding |
| **micro** | `3px` | 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).
**4/8 structural patterns detected.**
### Hero Pattern
- **Composition:** centered — Centered composition — heading + subheading + CTAs stacked vertically, content centered horizontally. Common for SaaS marketing pages.
- **Viewport coverage:** 295px tall (not full-viewport)
- **Heading:** "Making life multiplanetary" — 80px left-aligned
- **Subheading:** "SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not."
- **CTAs:** 1 (primary: "EXPLORE")
- **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:** 74px
- **Logo:** ✓ present
- **Nav links:** 21 primary items
- **CTAs in nav:** 0 (no buttons — links only)
- **Clone instruction:** Build a static logo left links left navigation. Link-only — no button styling needed.
### Card Grid Pattern
- **Card count:** 5 cards detected
- **Columns (desktop):** 1-up grid
- **Card dimensions:** 1440×941px (aspect 1.53:1)
- **Gap:** 0px between cards
- **Content:** ✓ image + CTA
- **Image position:** top
- **Clone instruction:** Build a 1-column grid (desktop) with cards at ~1.53:1 aspect ratio. Each card has an image at the top.
### Footer Pattern
- **Columns:** 1
- **Links:** 5 total
- **Height:** 75px
- **Includes:** ✗ no newsletter | ✓ social icons | ✓ copyright
- **Clone instruction:** Build a 1-column footer with ~5 links per column, social media links, and a copyright line.
## 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(0.19,1,0.22,1)` | Expo Out — Snappy Deceleration |
### Duration Scale
| Value | Tier | Typical Use |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `200ms` | Normal | Panel open/close, navigation |
| `300ms` | Normal | Panel open/close, navigation |
| `500ms` | Slow | Hero animations, page transitions |
| `1s` | Cinematic | Splash, marketing reveals |
### Copy-Paste Transition Snippets
**Opacity**
```css
transition: opacity 0.3s;
```
**All Props**
```css
transition: max-height 0.5s, padding-top 0.5s;
```

```
**Background**
```css
transition: background-color 0.5s cubic-bezier(0.19, 1, 0.22, 1);
```
### Keyframe Animation Catalog
| Animation Name | Type | Animated Props | Use Hint |
|----------------|------|----------------|----------|
| `hide` | Fade | opacity | UI transition |
| `reveal-header` | Fade + Move | opacity, transform | UI transition |
| `reveal-subheader` | Fade + Move | opacity, transform | UI transition |

### Motion Fingerprint
- **Speed Character**: Deliberate & Calm (median duration: `500ms`)
- **Dominant Easing**: exponential ease-out (snappy)
- **Animation Library**: 7 unique animations (7 total including variants)
> This design moves with deliberate & calm timing using exponential ease-out (snappy), creating a UI that feels calm and controlled.
## 8. Do's and Don'ts
### Do
- Use dark background (`#000000`) as the foundation — this is a dark-mode-native design
- Use D-DIN as the primary typeface — it defines the brand personality
- Keep font weights between 400-400 — the system uses a narrow weight range for subtle hierarchy
- Use small 4px radius for buttons — this design system uses subtle rounding, not pill shapes
- Apply 20px 10px 20px 6px padding inside cards — matches the design system's content breathing room
- Respect the 3px–30px spacing range — the design uses a wide scale for visual breathing room
- Keep the hero centered and text-driven — no decorative media, typography carries the message
- Use a single primary CTA in the hero — the design intentionally avoids choice paralysis
- Each card includes a top image — imagery is part of the card identity, not optional
### Don't
- Don't use light backgrounds — the dark canvas is the native medium
- Don't substitute with generic sans-serif or serif — the custom font carries the brand
- Don't use weight 700 (bold) or above — 400 is the maximum weight in this system
- Don't over-round buttons with pill or large radius — the system uses restrained, sharp-ish corners
- 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
- Don't over-build the footer — this design keeps it minimal (1 cols, 5 links)
## 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(0, 0, 0)` as the base canvas"
why: "Every component is designed to composit against this exact tone"
test: "document.body.style.backgroundColor === 'rgb(0, 0, 0)'"
- 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 Large | 600px | Expanded mobile layout |
| Tablet | 960px | Multi-column grids begin |
| Desktop | 1279px | Full feature layout |
| Large Desktop | 1350px | Maximum content width |
| Large Desktop | 1500px | Maximum content width |
### Token Diff — Desktop vs Mobile
| Element | Property | Desktop | Mobile |
|---------|----------|---------|--------|
| body | font-size | `16px` | `10px` |
| body | line-height | `24px` | `12px` |
| nav | flex-direction | `row` | `column` |
| nav | padding | `24px 40px` | `24px 0px` |
| nav | height | `26px` | `62px` |
| button | font-size | `16px` | `10px` |
| button | width | `auto` | `24px` |
| card | padding | `20px 10px 20px 6px` | `8px 0px 40px` |
| card | width | `243.656px` | `362px` |
### 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):
- **Navigation collapses to hamburger** — 21 links visible on desktop, 0 on mobile (the rest hide behind a menu toggle).
## 9b. Visual Tone & Photography
**Tone:** Mixed photography + illustration
A balanced mix of photographic content and vector graphics. Photos likely carry product/lifestyle context while SVG handles icons, logos, and decorative accents.
**Canonical Brand Image (OG):**
- https://www.spacex.com/assets/images/share.jpg
*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: 1:1 (square / portrait)
- Rendered size: 64×64px
- *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): 2 (50%)
- Portrait (<0.87): 0 (0%)
- Square (0.87–1.15): 2 (50%)
**Media Format Mix:**
- JPG: 4 (typically photographic content)
**Average rendered image size:** 752×503px
**Above-fold image count:** 2 / 4
**Decorative Patterns Detected:**
- 12 multi-stop linear gradients (mesh-like, 3+ color stops) — the brand leans on rich color transitions for visual depth
- **Glassmorphism** detected (`backdrop-filter: blur`) — layered transparent surfaces with blur, modern OS-like aesthetic
**Clone instruction for decorative work:** This is a gradient-rich design — invest in multi-stop CSS gradients (3+ color stops), not solid backgrounds.
**Imagery Guidance for clones:**
- Mix photography and illustration intentionally: photos for product/context, vectors for icons + decorative accents.
- Respect the format split — replacing JPGs with illustrations (or vice versa) will shift the brand tone.
## 10. Agent Prompt Guide
### Quick Reference
- Background: Pure Black (`#000000`)
- Primary text: Light Gray (`#f0f0fa`)
- Accent: Ring Blue (`#3b82f6`)
- Border: Translucent Pure White (8%) (`rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.08)`)
- Font: D-DIN
- Body: 16px weight 400
### Example Component Prompts
- "Create the primary CTA button: `transparent` background, `#f0f0fa` text, 9999px border-radius, 12px 24px padding, 700 weight, D-DIN font."
- "Design a card on `transparent` background. Border: none. Radius: 0px. Shadow: none. Padding: 20px 10px 20px 6px."
- "Build navigation: static on `#000000`. D-DIN 16px weight 400 for links."
### Iteration Guide
1. **Canvas**: Set the dark canvas to Pure Black (`#000000`) — every component is composited against this exact base.
2. **Typography**: All type in D-DIN, weight range 400–400. Never exceed 400 — heavier weights break the brand's tonal restraint.
3. **Motion**: All transitions use `cubic-bezier(0.19,1,0.22,1)`. Never use linear for UI transitions — preserve the brand's easing personality.
4. **Shape**: CTAs at `4px`, cards at `0px`. Apply border-radius from the extracted scale only — don't invent intermediate values.
5. **Spacing**: Use the `--ca-space-*` token scale (3px–30px). All padding, margin, and gap values are multiples from this scale — no magic numbers.
6. **Tokens**: Import from §11 CSS Export (`--ca-*` vars). Never hardcode hex values — always reference a token so theming remains consistent.
## 11. CSS Design Tokens Raw Export
*Copy-paste ready `:root {}` block — all values extracted directly from the live site.*
```css
/* Colors */

```
## 13. Page Structure Skeleton
*The actual layout the source site uses. Reproduce these sections in order to match the site structure.*
```yaml

```
**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:
- "STARSHIP'S TWELFTH FLIGHT TEST"
- "MAKING LIFE MULTIPLANETARY"
- "REVOLUTIONIZING SPACE TECHNOLOGY"
- "WORLD’S LEADING LAUNCH SERVICE PROVIDER"
ctas:
- "WATCH"
navigation:
- "STARSHIP"
- "DRAGON"
- "FALCON 9"
- "FALCON HEAVY"
- "OVERVIEW"
- "SPACE STATION"
- "EARTH ORBIT"
- "THE MOON"
- "MARS & BEYOND"
- "STARLINK"
footer-links:
- "CAREERS"
```
**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:
thumbnail:
count: 2
avg-ratio: 1.00
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">
WATCH
</button>
```
_Source pattern detected: padding `0px 20px` · radius `4px` · weight `400`_
### Generic Card
```html
<div class="card">
<!-- content -->
</div>
```
_Source pattern detected: padding `20px 10px 20px 6px` · radius `0px` · 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.

## Extraction Completeness: 48/100 (D)
| Category | Score | Max | Detail |
|----------|-------|-----|--------|
| Colors & Palette | 6 | 25 | 4 named colors |
| Typography | 13 | 20 | 5 roles defined |
| Components | 12 | 20 | 3 specs extracted |
| Motion & Interaction | 12 | 15 | Keyframes present |
| CSS Custom Properties | 1 | 10 | 16 vars |
| Responsive Breakpoints | 5 | 5 | 5 breakpoints |
| Variable Fonts | 0 | 5 | None detected |
## 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 |
|----------|----------------|-------------------|
| **Dark mode** | No dark-mode CSS variables or media queries detected | Light mode is canonical; do not generate dark-mode variants unless explicitly requested |
| **Form inputs** | No text input fields detected on this page | Use the documented border-radius + accent border on focus; 12-16px padding inside |
| **Design tokens** | Only 16 CSS custom properties (low signal for semantic naming) | Color names are nearest-neighbor approximations; verify against brand guidelines if available |
### Per-section confidence
| Section | Confidence | Reason |
|---------|------------|--------|
| §1 Visual Theme | High | Body bg extracted via getComputedStyle() |
| §2 Colors | Medium | 16 CSS vars (semantic naming requires ≥20 for high) |
| §3 Typography | High | 5 typography roles inferred |
| §4 Components | Medium | 3 component variants captured |
| §7 Motion | High | Keyframes + transitions |
| §8 Do's/Don'ts | High | 17 rules generated; design-decisions.json has evidence per rule |
| §9 Responsive | High | 5 breakpoints detected |
| §9b Photography | High | 4 images, hero present |
