Palette

A bright red on a clean neutral base

Each swatch below shows its name, hex value, and where to use it. Red carries action and a few brand moments; a calm slate handles the quieter structural touches. The brand red comes in two shades — one for buttons and one for text and links — explained just below.

The two reds
Buttons · white text
Brand red#E4002B
Buttons and big brand moments — button fills, big stat numbers, the logo wordmark. Always pairs with white text.
Text & links
Action red#CB0026
All red text and links, and button hover. Stays crisp on white or the light-gray surface.
Pressed
Action red — pressed#B60022
The deepest red, used only for a button’s pressed state.
Dark text only
Red tint#FBE9EA
A quiet wash behind dark text — callouts, accent tags, and trust markers.
Secondary accent — the slate sub-system
Secondary accent
Slate#1F3A5F
The eyebrow rule, section numbers, and secondary buttons — a calm second accent so red stays reserved for true actions.
Hover & active
Slate deep#16304D
Hover and active states for the slate sub-system — the secondary button edge when pressed.
Behind navy text
Navy wash#EAF0F7
A light wash behind navy text only — accent tags and the secondary-button hover fill.
Ink (text)
Headings & body
Ink#1A1A1A
Headings and body text.
Secondary text
Ink muted#565D66
Lead text and eyebrow / field label text.
Captions
Ink subtle#6B7280
Captions, metadata, and hints.
Knockout
Footer / dark#161616
The dark masthead, footer, and knockout bands.
Surfaces & lines
Page background
White#FFFFFF
The primary background and cards.
Alt section
Surface#F5F6F7
The soft cool-gray of alternating sections.
Hairline
Line#E2E5E9
Light dividers and card edges.
Input outline
Border strong#767D86
The outline around form fields and filter chips, dark enough to see on its own.

Every color pairing here is tested to meet WCAG 2.1 AA contrast for legibility.

Type system

Two families, a confident scale

Plus Jakarta Sans gives headlines a friendly, distinctly-not-corporate voice; Inter keeps body and UI calm and clear. Two families only — uppercase is reserved for small eyebrows and labels.

Actions

Buttons & links

Built for conversion and accessibility: big tap targets, clear labels, a visible focus outline, and the two reds so text stays legible on any surface. Every state is shown below.

Primary — brand-red fill

The brand-red button with white text. Big tap target, clear label.

Sell My HomeHover — a deeper red
Sell My HomePressed — deepest red
Sell My HomeFocus — a clear outline
Sell My HomeDisabled — greyed out

Secondary — slate outline

A slate-outlined button — clearly the secondary action, distinct from the red primary by color and fill.

Search HomesHover — fills with a light slate wash
Search HomesPressed — deeper slate edge, nudges down
Search HomesFocus — a clear slate outline
Search HomesDisabled — greyed out
05
Labels

Tags & badges

Small, uppercase, pill-shaped tags carry status and metadata, plus filter chips that clearly show which one is selected. SOLD may use the brighter brand-red fill; everything else stays restrained.

Status
For Sale New Construction SOLD

Dark ink for the authoritative “For Sale,” a calm slate accent for “New Construction,” and the brighter brand red reserved for the celebratory “SOLD.”

Metadata
Owen County Single family Pending

Neutral chips for metadata; the dark disclosure variant carries quiet status notes over photos.

Filter chips

Tappable and easy to hit. The selected chip fills with dark ink so the choice is clear by shape and color together.

Red-tint callout

45+ years, 1,100+ families. The red-tint wash with ink text is a quiet brand moment — perfect for trust markers and inline asides. Dark text only on the tint.

Art direction

Photography & art direction

Real photography only: bright, natural light, warm and true-to-life, minimal filtering. Locked ratios keep galleries tidy; a bottom-weighted ink scrim keeps white text legible over any image.
