Long exposure

# Build a website in the "Long exposure" style

You are building a production-ready website. Follow the design system below exactly and adapt the content to the project. The design comes from the Qalib library (design No. 269).

## 1. The project

- Name: [fill in]
- Type of site: [fill in]
- What it does: [fill in]
- Languages: Arabic and English: Arabic first (RTL) and a full English version (LTR) with a language switch
- Pages: One page with sections and anchor links
- Contact details: [fill in]
- Assets: No photos yet: use suitable placeholders and mark each one TODO for replacement.

## 2. Visual reference

- Live demo (Arabic): https://qalib.omardeek.tech/demos/long-exposure/ar.html
- Live demo (English): https://qalib.omardeek.tech/demos/long-exposure/en.html

Each demo is one HTML file with all its CSS in a <style> tag. Download the raw file (for example `curl -s <url>`), not a summary of it, and treat its CSS as the source of truth for spacing, sizes and effects. The demo's business and text are fictional: never copy them.

## 3. Design DNA: Aurora

Wide fields of colour that flow and blend slowly behind the page like the northern lights: electric blue, pink, violet and teal over a deep ground. Headings and numbers take the same gradient, and cards get thin coloured edges. For festivals, music, tech and modern brands.

- **Typography:** A modern sans used in both light and heavy weights, with large headings filled with a gradient (background-clip: text).
- **Colour:** A deep ground (navy or very dark violet) and four complementary aurora colours (#00E0FF, #FF2E9A, #7B3CFF, #00FF9C or close), slightly raised saturation.
- **Layout:** A big open hero filled by the aurora, widely spaced sections, and a few semi-transparent cards.
- **Shapes:** 18–24px corners, thin gradient edges (a masked border or a double background), and gradient pill buttons.
- **Imagery:** Night-lit or colourful photos, blended into the page with a light colour layer (mix-blend-mode).
- **Motion:** Blurred radial gradients (blur 40–60px) that drift and turn slowly on an 8–12s loop, with a light hue-rotate; they stop with reduced motion.
- **Details:** Gradient numbers, a glowing divider line, a glowing dot before labels.
- **Avoid:** A plain purple-to-blue gradient on white, text over light parts of the gradient without contrast, fast motion.

**This design in particular:** Night-sky black and polar green, a photographer of night landscapes and stars.

## 4. Design tokens

```css
:root {
  --bg: #05090C; /* page background */
  --surface: #0D151A; /* cards, panels, alternate sections */
  --ink: #EAF6F2; /* main text */
  --muted: #93A8A2; /* secondary text */
  --accent: #3CF2A5; /* buttons, links, highlights */
  --accent2: #7A5CFF; /* second highlight */
  --line: #18242A; /* rules and borders */
  --on-accent: #00160C; /* text on the accent colour */
  --radius: 22px;
}
```

- Colour scheme: dark
- Fonts (available on Google Fonts and fontsource; self-host them):
  - Arabic headings: Alexandria (300, 500, 800)
  - Arabic text: Readex Pro (300, 400, 600)
  - Latin headings: Outfit (300, 400, 600, 800)
  - Latin text: Outfit (300, 400, 600, 800)
- Type scale: h1: clamp(2.7rem, 6.2vw, 5.4rem) · h2: clamp(2rem, 4.2vw, 3.3rem) · h3: 1.25rem · text: 17px with 1.7 line height (Arabic 18px and 1.9) · max width 1200px · section spacing clamp(72px, 10vw, 136px)

## 5. Page structure

The demo shows a Photographer. Build the sections with these visual treatments, in this order:

1. **Header**: A floating rounded "pill" menu with a frosted background, detached from the top edge.
2. **Hero**: A full-screen photo under a dark gradient; the headline and buttons sit on top in white.
3. **Gallery** «Selected»: a masonry wall of photos with mixed heights
4. **About** «About me»: A wide photo with a text card overlapping its lower edge.
5. **Pricing** «Packages»: pricing cards with the featured option highlighted, a feature list and a button
6. **Testimonials** «Kind words»: a wall of testimonial cards in columns
7. **Call to action** «Let's make something beautiful»: a huge centred line of text with a button under it
8. **Contact** «Contact»: A large card on a tinted background: contact details on one side, the hours and button on the other.
9. **Footer**: the business name set huge across the footer, above the columns

## 6. Motion

Lively: larger 32px reveals, bouncy hovers and gently floating decorations.

## 7. Technical requirements

- **Stack:** Choose the stack that fits the project; prefer static HTML, CSS and JavaScript unless it needs more.
- Semantic HTML, mobile first, adapting at 360, 768, 1024 and 1440px, with no horizontal scrolling.
- Arabic: <html lang="ar" dir="rtl">, CSS logical properties (margin-inline-start, inset-inline-end…), mirrored directional icons, never letter-space or uppercase Arabic, and Arabic text at 18px or more.
- Accessibility: WCAG AA contrast, visible focus states, alt text on images, and all motion off under prefers-reduced-motion.
- Performance: self-hosted fonts with font-display: swap and only the weights and subsets in use, WebP or AVIF images with set dimensions, lazy loading below the first screen, and no heavy libraries for simple effects.
- SEO: a title and description for every page, Open Graph, a favicon, and LocalBusiness structured data where relevant.
- Buttons: WhatsApp links as https://wa.me/<number>, phone as tel:, email as mailto:.

## 8. Delivery

1. Start with the tokens and base styles, then build the sections from top to bottom.
2. Compare the result with the live demo at phone and desktop widths before you finish.
3. Finish with how to run the site and how to deploy it.

Paste it into Claude Code inside a new project folder.
