## Overview

Terra feels grown rather than built: linen backgrounds, moss green for action, rust and lake blue as supporting tones, and a warm display serif for headlines. It suits brands that want to show provenance, impact and the outdoors without greenwashing clichés.

## Colors

- **primary (#4E5E22):** Moss green, for primary buttons and links. In dark mode it lightens to a pale lichen green.
- **on-primary (#FFFFFF)**
- **secondary (#B0662E):** Rust, for highlights, seasonal tags and the second chart series.
- **tertiary (#3F6E7A):** Lake blue, for water, climate data and a third series.
- **neutral (#5E604F):** Olive grey for captions, sources and metadata.
- **surface (#F3EFE6):** Linen; cards are a lighter oat white.
- **on-surface (#22261A)**

## Typography

DM Serif Display at weight 400 for headlines, up to 80px; DM Sans for body at 17px, on a 1.6 line height. DM Mono for figures such as tonnes of CO2, distances and coordinates.

## Layout

Content spans up to 1200px on 12 columns with 24px gutters, spaced in 4px steps. Big landscape photos alternate with text sections; impact numbers sit in a simple three-column row.

## Shapes

10px corners on cards, images and buttons. 1px borders in a sandy grey; no shadows, so the page stays flat like print on recycled paper.

## Components

Solid moss buttons, photo cards with a rust tag, impact stat rows, a sourcing map or timeline, and a newsletter sign-up in a linen panel.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use real photos of places, people and materials.
- Do back impact claims with numbers and sources.
- Don't use neon greens or scatter leaf icons everywhere.
- Don't place moss text on rust; the contrast is too low.
