the aura family

Aura

Glass on atmosphere — luminous, refractive, ten years ahead.

Aura is the glassmorphic family. Glass is not a style — it is the material. Every surface is layered, backdrop-blurred, and soft-pressed; every elevation reads as light passing through a refractive layer rather than a shadow casting onto paper. The visual lineage is visionOS, Linear's command palette, Arc browser's spaces, Stripe's pricing surfaces, and the marketing pages of every AI product that wants to feel like the future.

Inter carries both display and body via weight shift; JetBrains Mono handles meta. No display serif, no slab — the discipline is part of the look. Color comes from the atmosphere beneath the glass, and from a single saturated accent reserved for one or two intentional moments per page.

Reach for Aura when the product's tone is serious, premium, and tech-forward — an enterprise AI dashboard, a private-banking landing page, a developer tool selling premium positioning. If the product is editorial, institutional, or playful, choose a different family.

How it differs

Bento shares Aura's modern voice but uses opaque tiles instead of glass. Cinematic goes moody and serif; Aura stays luminous and sans.

How content sits.

Five archetypes - feature, pricing, profile, stat, and testimonial. They use server-rendered family type and palette tokens so this section keeps first-paint SSR parity.

Feature

Generated families, real engineering

Every family ships as manifest data. The server render resolves the same typography, composition, and palette tokens the product uses.

Testimonial

"The shared semantic tokens made the new family feel consistent from the first pass."

Jules ParkStaff designer, Patagonia Digital

05 - Motion

How it moves.

Hover or focus either surface. The transition uses CSS variables and respects reduced motion without requiring a hydrated showcase.

Card - hover

Lift on hover, hairline tightens

Move your pointer over this card. The surface rises a few pixels and the border tightens to the brand color.

Button - focus

Tab into the button below. The focus ring uses the family's brand color and transitions at this family's curve.

Each palette below pairs with this family. The cards link straight to a fresh render of this page in that palette — share the URL, it's crawlable.

06 · Compositions

A few of the section topologies.

Compositions are family-agnostic — every family can render every topology. Combined with card layouts and collection layouts, the engine produces dozens of section presentations per section type. Diagrams show the shape; the family supplies the skin.
