## Visual thesis

Dark, left-aligned visual-first product story with soft geometry and image-led proof.

Vorelios opens with “A foundation model for engineering physics.” in a left-aligned visual-led hero. The homepage continues through 5 observed sections, moving from the opening proposition into 01 The problem, 02 What we're building, 03 What changes.

## Color

Dark surfaces use 7 repeated semantic colors; hierarchy is carried mainly by tonal contrast.

| Token | Value | Role | Usage |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Canvas | `#0a0b0d` | Page canvas | Dominant rendered page background. |
| Surface 1 | `rgba(230, 230, 222, 0.122)` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 21. |
| Surface 2 | `#08090b` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 10. |
| Surface 3 | `#0c0d10` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 10. |
| Primary text | `#e6e4dd` | Primary text | Observed display foreground with 15.5:1 contrast against the captured canvas. |
| Secondary text | `rgba(230, 229, 220, 0.722)` | Secondary text | Observed reading foreground; measured canvas-reference contrast is 8.3:1. |
| Border | `rgba(230, 230, 222, 0.122)` | Border and divider | Most repeated inspectable border color. |

## Typography

A single-family system uses Barlow across display and reading roles, differentiated by size and weight.

| Role | Family | Size | Weight | Line height | Tracking | Style | Features | Color |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| display | Barlow | 84px | 400 | 80.64px | -2.52px | normal | none | rgb(230, 228, 221) |
| heading | Barlow | 14px | 400 | 19.6px | 1.68px | normal | none | rgba(230, 228, 221, 0.851) |
| body | Barlow | 22px | 400 | 31.9px | 0px | normal | none | rgba(230, 229, 220, 0.722) |
| body-small | Barlow | 15px | 400 | 22.5px | 0px | normal | none | rgba(230, 228, 222, 0.600) |
| label | Barlow | 13px | 400 | normal | 1.56px | normal | none | rgba(230, 228, 221, 0.851) |

## Spacing and shape

- Base unit: 8px
- Density: sparse
- Maximum content width: 800px
- Section gap: 56px
- Container padding: 24px
- Common spacing: `56px`, `24px`, `14px`, `104px`, `5px`, `48px`, `28px`, `1px`, `4.5px`, `8px`
- Corner strategy: Soft geometry is the dominant shape voice. Separation relies on borders and surface contrast rather than shadow.
- Radii: Containers `6px`, Media `4px`, Cards `0px`
- Borders: `1px solid rgba(230, 230, 222, 0.122)`, `1px solid rgba(230, 230, 220, 0.200)`
- Shadows: `None observed`

## Layout

- Macrostructure: Visual marquee narrative
- Hero: Visual marquee: imagery carries most of the opening surface
- Grid: 3 columns
- Footer: Utility footer with 4 actions
- Reading flow: The homepage continues through 5 observed sections, moving from the opening proposition into 01 The problem, 02 What we're building, 03 What changes.
- Section sequence: 01 The problem → 02 What we're building → 03 What changes → 04 Why one model → 05 Get in touch

## Component grammar

### Hero

Visual led, left-aligned opening anchored by the primary message.

- Role: Opening proposition
- Observed instances: 1
  - Pattern: `visual-led`
  - Alignment: `left`
  - Heading: `Barlow · 84px / 400`
  - Media: `image-led`

### Navigation

Static navigation with 1 visible actions in the desktop opening.

- Role: Global wayfinding
- Observed instances: 1
  - Text: `#e6e4dd`
  - Border: `none`
  - Radius: `0px`
  - Padding: `28px 56px 28px 56px`
  - Type: `Barlow · 16px / 400`
  - Position: `absolute`
  - Height: `78px`

### Content card

1 style-matched content card instance was found among 2 candidates; properties describe the dominant observed cluster.

- Role: Repeated content module
- Observed instances: 1
  - Background: `#08090b`
  - Text: `#e6e4dd`
  - Border: `none`
  - Radius: `0px`
  - Padding: `48px 56px 48px 56px`
  - Type: `Barlow · 16px / 400`
  - Candidate pool: `2`

### Badge or tag

1 style-matched badge or tag instance was found among 1 candidates; properties describe the dominant observed cluster.

- Role: Compact status or category label
- Observed instances: 1
  - Text: `rgba(229, 228, 221, 0.702)`
  - Border: `none`

  - Type: `Barlow · 14px / 400`
  - Candidate pool: `1`

### Media frame

1 style-matched media element was found among 2 rendered candidates; cover fitting and 0px are the most repeated treatments.

- Role: Visual proof
- Observed instances: 1
  - Fit: `cover, fill`
  - Ratios: `2.15, 1.00`
  - Radius: `0px, 4px`
  - Candidate pool: `2`

### Footer

4 visible actions close the page on a transparent surface.

- Role: Closing navigation
- Observed instances: 1

## Imagery

Image led media acts as the page’s primary visual proof rather than decoration. A focused visual anchors the first viewport.

- Inventory: 2 images/canvas elements and 0 videos across the analyzed homepage.
- Treatment: cover fitting · square-edged frames

## Motion

2 declared keyframes and 4 active animations were inspectable at capture; observed timing uses 1.1s, 1.2s, 1.6s.

- Libraries: CSS / browser-native or bundled source not identifiable
- Durations: `1.1s`, `1.2s`, `1.6s`, `0.01ms`, `1200ms`, `1600ms`, `1100ms`
- Easings: `ease-out`, `cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.7, 0.2, 1)`, `linear`
- Interaction states: hover, focus
- Reduced-motion declaration found: yes

## Responsive behavior

Measured at 390 × 844.

- The same 1 visible navigation action remains at mobile width.
- Hero alignment changes from left to center; mobile heading size is 42px.
- Observed multi-column desktop regions collapse to a single-column mobile flow.
- Horizontal overflow: not detected

## Do

- Pair the observed #0a0b0d canvas with #e6e4dd primary copy before adding secondary surfaces.
- Use Barlow at 84px/80.64px, weight 400, for the primary display moment.
- Let the left-aligned visual-led hero establish hierarchy before secondary content.
- Image led media acts as the page’s primary visual proof rather than decoration.

## Don’t

- Do not mix in arbitrary radii; 6px is the repeated treatment on containers.
- Do not introduce an accent hue that is absent from the captured palette.
- Do not introduce extra type families beyond Barlow.
- Do not add card shadows; the source separates content without repeated elevation.

## Evidence

- Hero: `/captures/vorelios/hero.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 0px) — Visible section: A foundation model for engineering physics.
- Mid-page: `/captures/vorelios/middle.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 1379px) — Visible section: 02 What we're building · 03 What changes
- Closing: `/captures/vorelios/closing.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 2538px) — Visible section: 04 Why one model · 05 Get in touch
- Mobile: `/captures/vorelios/mobile.webp` (390 × 844, scroll 0px) — Visible section: A foundation model for engineering physics.

## Confidence notes

- The hero heading was read from semantic heading markup.
- 2 responsive breakpoint declarations were inspectable.
- 1 stylesheet was inspectable; 1 cross-origin stylesheet was unavailable to rule inspection.
- Computed styles describe the captured render; source design tokens and proprietary font files were not copied.
