Design a light-mode web interface screen: fresh cobalt highlights across pristine white surfaces with rounded badge accents and floating credential cards.
LAYOUT
The page adheres to a standard 12-column grid within a 1200px container, utilizing an asymmetric two-column split in the hero (text on left, layered portrait with floating widgets on right). A centered 3-step linear flow with connecting dashed indicators follows to explain mechanics. The subsequent section reintroduces an asymmetric split highlighting curated instructor profiles and aggregate ratings.
PALETTE (use these exact hex values)
- #ffffff — Canvas White: Main page background and baseline card fill
- #3b82f6 — Electric Cobalt: Primary call-to-action buttons, active navigation indicator lines, and primary icon glyphs
- #0ea5e9 — Cyan Blue: Secondary accent used on hero highlight headline text and subtle tag accents
- #0f172a — Slate 900: Primary headings, titles, and high-emphasis display type
- #64748b — Muted Slate: Subtitles, body paragraphs, instructor descriptions, and inactive nav items
- #eff6ff — Sky Tint Base: Hero image backing panel, pill badges, and soft circular icon backdrops
- #10b981 — Mint Success: Admission checkmark circle and certification icon highlights
- #ffe4e6 — Soft Peach: Calendar booking icon backdrop container in the process flow
TYPOGRAPHY
Typeface Plus Jakarta Sans (or Outfit, Inter, DM Sans), weights 400/500/600/700/800. Sizes 12px caption, 13px body-sm, 15px body, 16px body-lg, 20px subheading, 24px heading, 36px heading-lg, 48px display. Tracking -0.02em at display, 0em at body. The geometric sans-serif (Plus Jakarta Sans match) communicates a friendly, approachable, yet modern tech-forward academy vibe. High x-height and circular letterforms lend warmth, while tight headline tracking (-0.02em) keeps large titles crisp and authoritative. Inter or Outfit can be seamlessly substituted without loss of clarity or geometry.
GEOMETRY & SPACING
Corner radii — cards 24px, links 4px, inputs 10px, buttons 10px. Spacing on a 4px unit, 24px gaps, 96px between sections, 1200px container, comfortable density.
DEPTH
Depth is created through gentle, diffused drop shadows beneath pure white floating card components (0 10px 30px rgba(15, 23, 42, 0.08)). These cards overlap photograph edges and colored backplates to produce a layered, physical paper-like dimension. Background sections remain strictly flat, avoiding linear gradients or inset borders.
IMAGERY
Photographs feature candid, high-quality studio portraits of smiling students and educators holding study materials or looking directly at the camera. Subjects are cut out or framed within generously curved bounding boxes (24px to 32px radius) resting on pastel sky-blue backdrops. Stock imagery showing corporate handshakes or overly formal business suits is strictly avoided.
SIGNATURE DETAIL — the thing that makes this design itself
The layered portrait stack: a tall, rounded pastel-tinted rectangle holding an optimistic photo, overlapped by offset floating micro-cards ('Congratulations!', 'Live Class') casting soft shadows over the image boundary. This technique transforms static hero photography into an active, interface-driven software preview; misusing it by crowding more than two small cards ruins the clean composition.
MUST
- Anchor photographic subjects within rounded, soft-blue geometric shape backdrops (#eff6ff).
- Use electric cobalt (#3b82f6) strictly for interactive buttons, badges, and verified ticks.
- Maintain generous section padding between 80px and 112px to allow white space breathing room.
- Pair dark primary titles (#0f172a) with bright cyan accents (#0ea5e9) on key hero phrases.
AVOID
- Do not use dark, heavy shadows or harsh borders around floating metric cards.
- Never apply high-saturation gradients across large background areas; keep the canvas predominantly pure white.
- Avoid sharp 0px corners on cards, badges, or photo containers.
- Do not crowd portrait images; let floating micro-cards overlap edges organically.
