# Design System — Cadence

> Read from Cadence's public website (cadence.care) by Clinical Terminal. Not reviewed by Cadence.
> Use it as inspiration: borrow the ideas, not Cadence's name, logo or identity.

## Ground
- **Light ground** (#FBFBFA), from Cadence's site background #FBFBFA. Pages and panels sit on it.
- Main text: #0A162E (17.38:1 on the ground).
- Secondary text is #0A162E at 88% / 76% / 60%; hairlines and plate borders #0A162E at 16%.

## Color
- **Accent on the ground: #364E7A** (8.02:1). Use it for kickers, key numbers and one highlight per screen, not for large fills.
- **Primary #364E7A** for filled shapes (buttons, chips, bars), with #FFFFFF text on it (8.31:1).
- Secondary accent #1628E0: charts and a second data series only.
- Quote every hex exactly as written above.

## Type
- Headlines: **Archivo**. Body: **Archivo**. Both on Google Fonts.
- Cadence's site uses Noi Grotesk / Noi Grotesk; these are the closest free look-alikes.

## Shape
- Cards and panels: 12px corners. Buttons and chips: 16px.

## Voice
- Tone: professional. Energy: low. Written for patients and healthcare professionals.
- Headlines are short and concrete.
