# Uniswap — Style Reference
> Neon accent on white canvas

**Theme:** light

**Site:** https://app.uniswap.org

Uniswap's design system embraces a 'soft tech' aesthetic, balancing a vibrant, almost playful color palette with clean, functional UI elements. The layout features generous negative space and a light canvas, punctuated by rounded cards and ghost buttons. A single vivid pink serves as the primary accent, creating clear calls to action amidst a mostly achromatic interface. Typography is compact and precise, contributing to a feeling of efficiency and modern reliability.

## Layout

The page primarily uses a full-bleed layout, allowing background elements to extend to the edges. Content, however, is contained within an implicit maximum width, centered on the screen, creating clear reading paths. The hero section often features a prominent, centered headline over a diffused graphical background. Sections generally follow a consistent vertical rhythm with minimal visual dividers, flowing seamlessly. Content is frequently arranged in balanced two-column text-left/image-right or text-over-card blocks, with some sections utilizing a three-column card grid for features. The overall density is comfortable, with ample whitespace surrounding content blocks. Navigation is a sticky top bar with clear, compact links and a prominent 'Connect' action button.

## Imagery

The visual language for imagery leans heavily into abstract, blurred, organic shapes used as background decoration, often with a pastel color palette. These elements are atmospheric rather than informative, adding a soft, playful energy. Icons are typically single-color, clean, and functional, frequently adopting one of the accent colors (#8251fb, #ff4d00, #f50db4, #2abdff, #00c3a0). Photography and screenshots are product-focused and often presented within rounded containers, maintaining the overall soft aesthetic. The density is moderate; imagery serves to break up text and add visual interest without overpowering the UI.

## Guidelines

### Do

- Use Basel typeface at varying weights (400, 485, 500, 535) with a -0.020em letter-spacing for all text elements.
- Prioritize Canvas White (#ffffff) for the primary page background and Surface Frost (#f9f9f9) for card elements to establish surface hierarchy.
- Apply Action Pink (#ff37c7) exclusively for primary calls to action, clear active states, and critical interactive elements.
- Utilize 999999px (pill) radius for all primary action buttons and small interactive elements, and 20px-24px for cards.
- Maintain comfortable spacing with 8px as the primary element gap and 24px for section separation.
- Layer text colors from Text Primary (#131313) to Text Muted (#6a6a6a) to convey information hierarchy clearly.
- Incorporate highly rounded, almost pill-shaped corners (999999px) for buttons and similar interactive elements for a distinct friendly feel.

### Don't

- Do not introduce new saturated colors for interactive elements; rely on the established brand and accent colors.
- Avoid heavy drop shadows or strong elevation effects; a minimal or absent shadow approach is preferred.
- Do not deviate from the Basel typeface or its specified letter-spacing for any UI text.
- Do not use generic square or slightly rounded components; ensure cards have at least a 20px radius.
- Refrain from using deep, dark backgrounds for main content areas, as the system is built on a light canvas.
- Avoid cluttering layouts; always prioritize generous negative space and comfortable density.
- Do not use transparent backgrounds for action buttons when Action Pink (#ff37c7) is available for a filled state.
