Signal Ritual Brand Kit
Canonical starter for full color system, brand expression, and app UI discipline.
Signal Ritual
Ritual gravity + product precision for identity-state interfaces.
Ink/Paper + Orb Accents
Rule: keep UI surfaces in ink/paper neutrals. Use saturated hues only for orbital signal moments.
Interface Tone
Measured language. Calm confidence. Data-backed symbolism.

Color Roles
Full palette available, but UI substrate defaults to ink/paper. Chroma is signal-only.
Typography System
Editor's Note Display
Space Grotesk body copy for product readability.
Utility labels use wide tracking and low emphasis.
Gradient and Aura System
Signal Orb
Liminal Warm
Balance Band
Component Baseline
Use paper/ink for cards, forms, nav, and long-form reading surfaces.
Use chroma for orbital accents, factor signal, and state emphasis.
Do not set card backgrounds to saturated gradients.
Avoid blue-cyan bias unless semantically required by data meaning.
Frontier rule: base UI is paper and ink. Orb colors carry emotional signal; they are accents, not the substrate.
Paper Surface Example
Calm substrate, high legibility
