# Klim Type Foundry

> Extracted from [https://klim.co.nz/](https://klim.co.nz/) on 2026-11-12 by Emblematic. Every value below was read from the rendered DOM (computed styles, `document.fonts`, and the fonts Chrome actually used to paint text), not estimated from pixels. When the YAML front matter and this prose disagree, the YAML wins. Copy values from this file exactly; don't transcribe them from memory. Don't copy logos, imagery, illustrations or marketing copy.

## Overview

Klim Type Foundry uses a dark canvas (#000000) with a palette led by #D33C03. Type is set in **Söhne** (display + body), with 16px body text. Layout: 695px container, top-sticky+transparent navigation, 5 sections. Built with gatsby, radix-ui, google-tag-manager, cloudfront.

## Colors

Area-weighted from painted backgrounds, text and borders on the 1440px light capture. Roles are inferred from usage (largest background, most text, interactive fills). Every hex is an exact computed value; a role marked *unverified* is a best guess that has not passed review, so its canonical token (e.g. `primary`) is left out of the front matter.

| Token | Hex | OKLCH | Role | Share of paint | CSS variable |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `background` | `#000000` | 0 0 0 | bg | 65.3% | `--backgroundColor` |
| `on-surface-variant` | `#555555` | 0.45 0 0 | muted | 2.9% | `--mixedColor6Ref` |
| `on-surface` | `#FFFFFF` | 1 0 0 | text | 4.2% | `--foregroundColor` |
| `outline` | `#383838` | 0.341 0 0 | border | 0.14% | `--borderColor` |
| `primary` | `#D33C03` | 0.577 0.195 36.2 | accent | 0.03% | — |
| `color-6` | `#3C585F` | 0.441 0.035 215 | other | 15.5% | — |
| `color-7` | `#141414` | 0.191 0 0 | other | 5.0% | — |
| `color-8` | `#0000FF` | 0.452 0.313 264.1 | other | 2.5% | — |
| `color-9` | `#CECECE` | 0.851 0 0 | other | 2.5% | — |
| `mixedcolor4ref` | `#8D8D8D` | 0.643 0 0 | other | 1.1% | `--mixedColor4Ref` |
| `color-11` | `#7F7F7F` | 0.596 0 0 | other | 0.35% | — |
| `mixedcolor8ref` | `#1C1C1C` | 0.226 0 0 | other | 0.10% | `--mixedColor8Ref` |

Sparse chromatic highlights (not accents): `#FFCC01`, `#24A7F2`, `#E90702`, `#FFFF79`.

Contrast: text on background 19.95:1, muted text 2.82:1, accent 4.42:1.

The site does not change under `prefers-color-scheme: dark`.

## Typography

| Family | Role | Weights | Share of text | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **Söhne** (CSS: `SOEHNE`) | display, body | 400, 700 | 98.1% | webfont |
| **SOEHNE IKON** (CSS: `SOEHNE_IKON`) | other | 400 | 1.9% | webfont |

Declared in `@font-face` but not used to paint text on this page: MARTINA PLANTIJN, Söhne Mono, CALIBRE2. Don't treat these as the page's fonts.

Scale (px): 16, 36.  Body 16px at line-height 1.333; display 36px with tracking 0em. Headings are mixed case. On a 390px viewport the body is 14px and display 21px.

## Layout

Spacing has no reliable single base unit; the most used steps are 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 20, 30, 34.5, 68.5, 137px. Sections open with about 852px of space before their first line of text. Content sits in a 695px container on a 12-column grid. Text density 0.033 (text area / page area).

Section order (desktop). Kinds below the review threshold are shown as *section*:

1. **nav** (48px, bg #000000)
2. **hero** (3552px, bg #D33C03)
3. **section** (3816px, bg #24A7F2)
4. **section** (1407px, bg #000000)
5. **footer** (1523px, bg #000000)

## Shapes

Dominant corner radius 2px; radii in use: 2px. Borders: hairline (1px).

## Components

- **button-primary**: backgroundColor `#D33C03`, textColor `#000000`, rounded `2px`, padding `0px 8px`, height `28px`, fontFamily `Söhne`, fontSize `16px`, fontWeight `400` (e.g. “Die Grotesk”)
- **button-secondary**: backgroundColor `#FFCC01`, textColor `#000000`, rounded `2px`, padding `0px 8px`, height `28px`, fontFamily `Söhne`, fontSize `16px`, fontWeight `400` (e.g. “Geograph”)
- **card**: rounded `2px`, padding `0px`, backgroundColor `#1C1C1C`
- **input**: rounded `2px`, height `36px`, padding `0px 8px`, backgroundColor `#1C1C1C`, border `1px solid #1C1C1C`

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do reserve `#D33C03` for primary actions and highlights; it covers only 0.03% of the painted page.
- Do set body copy in Söhne at 16px / 1.333.
- Don't introduce font weights beyond 400, 700.
- Don't add drop shadows; depth comes from tone and borders.
- Do keep corners at 2px for most controls.
- Don't copy this site's logos, illustrations, photography or copy; use the system, not the brand assets.
