Mist

# Build a website in the "Mist" 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. 256).

## 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/powder-mist/ar.html
- Live demo (English): https://qalib.omardeek.tech/demos/powder-mist/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: Soft UI

Neumorphism: the page is one surface in one colour, and elements rise out of it or sink into it with two opposite shadows (light from the top left, dark from the bottom right). Quiet and soft, for wellness, meditation, clinics and simple apps.

- **Typography:** A soft sans in medium and heavy weights at a comfortable size; text dark enough for contrast, since the surface is pale and muted.
- **Colour:** One pale greyish surface colour (such as #E4E9EF) for both page and cards, and a single calm accent (a muted blue, green or pink) for buttons and icons.
- **Layout:** Generous space and few elements, cards in the background colour told apart only by their shadow, dials and knobs like a device's controls.
- **Shapes:** 14–20px corners. Raised: box-shadow: -8px -8px 18px white, 8px 8px 18px translucent blue-grey; pressed: the same two shadows inset. No borders.
- **Imagery:** Calm photos inside pressed frames, and icons inside pressed circles.
- **Motion:** Slow and soft: a button goes from raised to pressed when clicked (150ms), elements fade in gently.
- **Details:** A large round dial holding a number, pressed input fields, toggle switches.
- **Avoid:** Pale low-contrast grey text, many colours, borders, and shadows on everything until the hierarchy is lost.

**This design in particular:** Powder pink and plum, perfumes as soft as mist on a silk surface.

## 4. Design tokens

```css
:root {

## 5. Page structure

The demo shows a Perfumery. 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 centred headline and lead with the buttons, followed by a wide panoramic photo.
3. **About** «The house»: Two columns: heading, paragraphs and a short signed quote; a tall photo with a smaller photo overlapping its corner.
4. **Main offering** «The collection»: a grid of cards (photo or icon, title, short text, price or note)
5. **Figures**: a row of four numbers with labels
6. **Process** «Bespoke»: numbered steps in a row with big numbers
7. **Gallery** «The atelier»: a photo grid with one large tile and captions on the photos
8. **Testimonials** «They said»: three testimonial cards with initials avatars
9. **Call to action** «A gift they won't forget»: a full-width coloured band with a heading, a line of text and a button
10. **Contact** «Visit us»: Contact details and hours on one side; a form (name, phone, message) in a panel on the other.
11. **Footer**: a single row: logo and tagline, social icons, copyright

## 6. Motion

Subtle: elements fade up about 24px as they enter, staggered by 70ms; light lifts on hover.

## 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.
