Score

White like a fresh score and one warm colour, a music school without a single ornament: plenty of silence between the lines and one large quote.

# Build a website in the "Score" 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. 077).

## 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/score/ar.html
- Live demo (English): https://qalib.omardeek.tech/demos/score/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: Minimal

Empty space is the main element: two or three colours, one typeface in light weights, a precise grid and nothing extra. For work that should speak for itself.

- **Typography:** One sans or a light serif in light to medium weights, small text sizes, contrast through size rather than weight.
- **Colour:** Warm white or stone grey, black ink, one muted accent or none.
- **Layout:** Very wide margins, strict alignment to the start edge, lists instead of cards, few sections.
- **Shapes:** No radii, no shadows, hairline dividers, text buttons with an underline.
- **Imagery:** Few, large photos in natural light, often black-and-white or muted.
- **Motion:** Almost none: light fades and colour transitions on hover.
- **Details:** Small section numbers (01, 02), small grey labels, a one-line contact.
- **Avoid:** Lots of icons, saturated colour, ornament, oversized buttons.

**This design in particular:** White like a fresh score and one warm colour, a music school without a single ornament: plenty of silence between the lines and one large quote.

## 4. Design tokens

```css
:root {
  --bg: #FBFAF7; /* page background */
  --surface: #F3F0EA; /* cards, panels, alternate sections */
  --ink: #2B2A28; /* main text */
  --muted: #85817A; /* secondary text */
  --accent: #9C7C5B; /* buttons, links, highlights */
  --accent2: #C8B9A6; /* second highlight */
  --line: #E7E2D9; /* rules and borders */
  --on-accent: #FFFFFF; /* text on the accent colour */
  --radius: 0px;
}
```

- Colour scheme: light
- Fonts (available on Google Fonts and fontsource; self-host them):
  - Arabic headings: Amiri (400, 700)
  - Arabic text: Mada (300, 400, 600)
  - Latin headings: Cormorant (400, 600, 700)
  - Latin text: Inter (400, 500, 700)
- 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 Music school. Build the sections with these visual treatments, in this order:

1. **Header**: Just the name and a few small text links; no button.
2. **Hero**: A centred headline and lead with the buttons, followed by a wide panoramic photo.
3. **About** «About Maqam»: A large centred quote with a signature, then the heading and paragraphs in two columns, then a strip of two photos.
4. **Main offering** «Instruments»: a numbered list of rows: title and text, with the price at the end
5. **Schedule** «This week»: a numbered list of rows: title and text, with the price at the end
6. **Pricing** «Fees»: a ruled table: number, title, description, and price or time
7. **Testimonials** «Our students»: one large centred testimonial at a time, rotating every few seconds, with dots
8. **Call to action** «The winter concert»: a huge centred line of text with a button under it
9. **Contact** «Enrolment»: A centred heading and text, a large WhatsApp button, contact details in a row and the hours below.
10. **Footer**: a single row: logo and tagline, social icons, copyright

## 6. Motion

Calm: only soft fades (about 1s) as sections enter; no movement on hover beyond colour.

## 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.
