Design system

Design system.

The building blocks of the RaceLineApp.ai interface: colour tokens, typography and live components, built from the same tokens as the live site. For the logo and press assets, see the brand kit.

Principles

Dark by default

The interface is an instrument, not a brochure. It runs dark, reads at a glance, and uses colour to carry meaning rather than decorate. The three coaching commands - Brake, Turn, Power - are a locked colour triad used identically in the app, on the Dash Puck LED and in any future HUD.

Two type systems run in parallel and never cross: a consumer-tech voice for marketing, and an instrument-cluster voice for the product UI.
