Broadside Ink

Every style renders this same screen, so the only thing changing between two of them is the style. The component above is the file below, running.

Design this interface in the Broadside Ink style. Wood-type weight headings in black on ecru stock, set tight and shouted in uppercase. Weight carries hierarchy; color does almost nothing.

Build every surface the Print way: Ink on stock: a grain over the whole page, edges that are drawn lines, fills that are screens or solids, and no depth anywhere.

Use exactly these values: background #f0ebdf, surfaces #f7f3e9, text #161310, secondary text #5b5346, accent #8c2f10 with #f7f3e9 on it; corner radius 0/0/0px; 2px solid borders; no shadows of any kind; Rockwell for body at 14px, line height 1.3; 4px spacing grid, regular spacing; labels in uppercase with wide letter spacing.

Never: thin weights; cool grey neutrals; rounded corners; soft shadows.

Dark mode uses background #100e0b, surfaces #171410, text #f4efe3, accent #e07a4e — the same style, not an inverted one.

The numbers in this prompt are printed from the tokens below, so it cannot drift from what the specimen renders.

Measured contrast — body 15.56:1 light, 16.8:1 dark; secondary text 6.37:1 and 6.79:1. Every pair clears WCAG AA in both themes, checked on each build.

/**
 * Vibary · Broadside Ink
 *
 * Heavy black wood type on ecru — a printed notice, not an interface.
 *
 * One complete product screen, rendered from the token object below —
 * the same screen every other Vibary specimen renders, so the style
 * is the only variable. Self-contained: React only, no CSS file, no
 * assets, no chart library.
 *
 * `theme` defaults to following the system setting; pass "light" or
 * "dark" to pin one.
