- AI_DESIGN_PRINCIPLES.md:
- Restructured into 5 parts: A. Decision Process, B. Component Selection,
C. Token Usage, D. Design Review, E. Escalation
- All rules use RFC 2119 normative words (MUST/MUST NOT/SHOULD/MAY)
- Clearer escalation path: when to create DDR, when to flag uncertainty
- COMPLIANCE_MATRIX.md:
- Tracks readiness for all 29 components (Tier 1/2/3)
- 6 dimensions: Governance, Tokens, Motion, Accessibility, AI, QA
- Foundation documents tracked separately
- Button at 82% (reference for others)
- docs/platform/README.md:
- Reserved directory for cross-cutting governance
- Future: AI Governance, Product Governance, Review Process,
Quality Gates, Release Governance, Decision Frameworks
- Separates platform governance from design system
- LANDVEX_DESIGN_SPECIFICATION.md:
- Button renamed to RFC-001: Canonical Button Component
- Structured with: Cognitive Purpose, When to Use/NOT Use,
User Expectation, Interaction Contract, Failure Behaviour,
Accessibility Contract, AI Contract
- Sets standard for all future RFC component specs
Rationale: AI rules before components (AI writes components).
Compliance matrix makes progress visible. Platform governance
separates cross-cutting concerns from design system. RFC format
for components ensures production-ready specifications.

TOKEN_PHILOSOPHY.md
1.0 Token Architecture
All tokens follow the three-level hierarchy defined in TOKEN_PHILOSOPHY.md:
Level 1: Primitive Tokens → Raw values (numbers, colors, dimensions)
Level 2: Semantic Tokens → Purpose-driven (surface-primary, text-muted)
Level 3: Component Tokens → Component-specific (button-primary-bg-hover)
MUST: Reference Level 2 (Semantic) by default. Level 3 (Component) only when component-specific override is required. MUST NOT: Reference Level 1 (Primitive) directly from components.

3. Typography
Status: ✅ Specified Principle: Typography is the foundation of information hierarchy. It must be readable, scannable, and calm.
3.1 Font Stack
| Role | Font | Fallback | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Inter | system-ui, -apple-system, sans-serif | All UI text, headings, body |
| Monospace | JetBrains Mono | ui-monospace, SFMono-Regular, monospace | Data, code, coordinates, tabular figures |
Rationale: Inter is designed for screen readability at small sizes. JetBrains Mono distinguishes similar characters (0/O, 1/l/I) — critical for geodata.
3.2 Font Fallback Strategy
/* Primary */
font-family: 'Inter', system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, sans-serif;
/* Monospace */
font-family: 'JetBrains Mono', ui-monospace, SFMono-Regular, 'SF Mono', Menlo, Consolas, monospace;
3.3 Variable Font
- Inter: Variable font enabled (weight 100–900)
- JetBrains Mono: Static weights only (400, 500, 700)
- Performance: Subset to Latin Extended + Swedish characters
3.4 Type Scale
| Token | Size | Line Height | Weight | Letter Spacing | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
text-xs |
12px | 16px | 400 | 0.01em | Captions, metadata, timestamps |
text-sm |
14px | 20px | 400 | 0 | Body small, secondary text |
text-base |
16px | 24px | 400 | 0 | Body, paragraphs |
text-lg |
18px | 28px | 400 | -0.01em | Lead paragraph, emphasis |
text-xl |
20px | 28px | 500 | -0.02em | Section headers, card titles |
text-2xl |
24px | 32px | 500 | -0.02em | Page titles, modal headers |
text-3xl |
30px | 36px | 600 | -0.02em | Major headings, dashboard titles |
text-4xl |
36px | 40px | 600 | -0.03em | Hero titles, empty states |
3.5 Information Levels
Typography is defined by function, not heading level.
| Level | Token | Weight | Usage | Frequency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Display | text-4xl |
600 | Landing pages, special overviews | Very rare |
| Section Title | text-3xl |
600 | Page titles, major sections | Rare |
| Panel Title | text-2xl |
500 | Card titles, modal headers | Common |
| Data Heading | text-xl |
500 | Table headers, KPI groups, map layers | Frequent |
| Body | text-base |
400 | Running text, descriptions | Default |
| UI Label | text-sm |
500 | Form labels, control labels | Frequent |
| Metadata | text-sm |
400 | Dates, status, secondary info | Frequent |
| Caption | text-xs |
400 | Help text, explanations | Common |
| Code / Numeric | text-sm |
400 | Code, coordinates, IDs, numbers | As needed |
Rationale: Enterprise users scan for information, not headings. Functional levels map to mental models better than H1–H6.
Note: When HTML heading elements are required for accessibility, map functionally:
- Display → H1 (once per page)
- Section Title → H2
- Panel Title → H3
- Data Heading → H4
- UI Label → label element (not heading)
3.6 Font Weights
| Token | Value | Usage |
|---|---|---|
font-normal |
400 | Body, descriptions |
font-medium |
500 | Emphasis, labels, buttons |
font-semibold |
600 | Headings, active states |
font-bold |
700 | Strong emphasis, alerts |
3.7 Line Height Rules
| Context | Rule | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Body text | 1.5× font size | Readability for long text |
| Headings | 1.2–1.3× font size | Tight, scannable |
| Data/numbers | 1.25× font size | Alignment in tables |
| Captions | 1.4× font size | Small text needs air |
3.8 Letter Spacing
| Context | Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Body | 0 | Natural reading |
| Headings | -0.02em | Tighter, more impactful |
| All-caps labels | 0.05em | Improves legibility |
| Captions | 0.01em | Slight openness |
3.9 Max Line Length
| Context | Max Width | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Body text | 65ch | Optimal reading width |
| Data tables | none | Full width |
| Side panels | 45ch | Narrow column readability |
3.10 Monospace Usage
| Context | Font | Features |
|---|---|---|
| Coordinates | JetBrains Mono | Tabular figures, always |
| Financial data | JetBrains Mono | Tabular figures, decimal alignment |
| Code snippets | JetBrains Mono | Ligatures disabled |
| Timestamps | JetBrains Mono | Fixed width for alignment |
3.11 Tabular Figures
Always enabled for:
- Data tables
- Financial values
- Coordinates (lat/long)
- Timestamps
- IDs and reference numbers
font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums;
3.12 Numerical Typography
| Rule | Value | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal separator | . (period) |
123.45 |
| Thousands separator | (space) |
1 234 567 |
| Negative numbers | - prefix |
-456.78 |
| Percentage | No space before % |
42.5% |
| Currency | Symbol before, space after | $ 1 234.56 |
4. Color System
Status: ✅ Foundation specified, Brand & Map pending Principle: Information dominates color. Color supports, never competes.

#0f172a |
Deepest surfaces, overlays |
Rationale: 12-step scale provides sufficient granularity without excess. Based on open-source neutral scales (Open Color, Tailwind) for familiarity.
4.2 Semantic Colors
Rule: Semantic colors communicate meaning. Brand colors communicate identity. Never mix the two.
4.2.1 Neutral Semantic

|---|---|---|
surface-primary |
neutral-0 |
Main background |
surface-secondary |

blue-200 |
Info outline |
info-text |
blue-700 |
Info message |
Rule: Status colors are never used for branding. Brand colors are never used for status.
4.3 Brand Palette
Status: ⏳ Pending brand definition
Landvex brand colors are used sparingly (5–10% of surface area).
| Token | Hex | Usage |
|---|---|---|
brand-50 |
— | Lightest tint |
brand-100 |
— | Hover backgrounds |
brand-200 |
— | Subtle highlights |
brand-300 |
— | — |
brand-400 |
— | — |
brand-500 |
— | Primary action, links |
brand-600 |
— | Hover state |
brand-700 |
— | Active state |
brand-800 |
— | — |
brand-900 |
— | Deepest shade |
MUST NOT: Use brand colors in data visualization or map layers. MUST NOT: Use brand colors to communicate status. Brand = identity. Semantic = meaning. MUST NOT mix.
4.4 Semantic Status Colors
| Token | Hex | Usage |
|---|---|---|
semantic-green-500 |
#40c057 |
Success, active, positive |
semantic-yellow-500 |
#fcc419 |
Warning, pending, attention |
semantic-red-500 |
#fa5252 |
Error, danger, negative |
semantic-blue-500 |
#339af0 |
Info, neutral highlight |
4.5 Data Visualization Colors
Status: ⏳ Pending data viz requirements
Separate palette for charts, graphs, KPIs. Must be:
- Colorblind-safe
- Distinguishable in monochrome
- Consistent across all data products
4.6 Map Layer Palette
Status: ⏳ Pending Mapbox configuration
Dedicated palette for geospatial visualization. Defined by layer, not individual color:
| Layer | Token | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Base Surface | map-base-surface |
Subtle, non-competing |
| Terrain | map-terrain |
Elevation indication |
| Water | map-water |
Consistent with cartographic convention |
| Road Network | map-road |
Hierarchy (motorway → path) |
| Administrative Boundaries | map-boundary |
Dashed, muted |
| Building Footprints | map-building |
Subtle 3D effect |
| Parcel Boundaries | map-parcel |
Land ownership |
| Mission Layer | map-mission |
Brand color, high visibility |
| Heatmap | map-heatmap |
Gradient from neutral to alert |
| Selection | map-selection |
Clear, non-intrusive |
| Hover | map-hover |
Interactive feedback |
| Overlay | map-overlay |
Contextual information |
| Night Accent | map-night |
Dark mode adaptation |
| Satellite Accent | map-satellite |
Satellite imagery overlay |
Principle: Map colors must work in all lighting conditions and never compete with data overlays.
Rule: Changing map style (light/dark/satellite) should only require swapping the map layer palette, not component colors.
5. Motion System
Status: ✅ Specified Principle: Motion supports understanding. It never decorates.
5.1 Motion Principles
When to animate:
- State changes that need attention (modal open, toast appear)
- Spatial relationships (drawer slide, page transition)
- Feedback on user action (button press, form submit)
- Loading and progress (skeleton, progress bar)
When NOT to animate:
- Static content that does not change
- Data updates that are frequent (live dashboards)
- Elements entering viewport on scroll (use Intersection Observer, not animation)
- Anything that delays user action
Rules:
- Animations must be interruptible
- Multiple animations must not conflict
- Motion must respect
prefers-reduced-motion
5.2 Duration Tokens (Intention-Based)
Tokens are named by intention, not duration. AI and developers reason about purpose, not milliseconds.
| Token | Value | Intention | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
duration-instant |
0ms | No perceived time | State changes that must feel immediate |
duration-interaction |
100ms | Micro-feedback | Hover, focus, press, toggle |
duration-transition |
200ms | Element state change | Appear, disappear, expand, collapse |
duration-navigation |
300ms | View change | Page transition, drawer, modal |
duration-layout |
400ms | Structural shift | Sidebar expand, grid reorder |
duration-context-change |
500ms | Major context switch | Full-screen overlay, wizard step |
duration-attention |
600ms | Draw attention | Toast, alert, notification |
duration-background |
1000ms | Ambient, non-blocking | Skeleton shimmer, progress sweep |
Mapping to traditional terms:
duration-interaction≈ "fast"duration-transition≈ "normal"duration-navigation≈ "slow"duration-context-change≈ "slower"
5.3 Easing Functions
| Token | Value | Usage |
|---|---|---|
ease-linear |
linear | Continuous motion, progress bars |
ease-in |
cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 1, 1) | Exit animations, dismiss |

ease-in-out |
cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1) | Standard, symmetric |
ease-spring |
cubic-bezier(0.34, 1.56, 0.64, 1) | Playful, overshoot |
5.4 Component-Specific Motion

| Indeterminate | Sweep | duration-background |
linear infinite |
| Determinate | Width growth | duration-navigation |
ease-out |
| Complete | Checkmark draw | duration-transition |
ease-out |
5.5 Reduced Motion
When prefers-reduced-motion: reduce is active:
- All animations become instant (0ms)
- Skeleton shows static placeholder (no shimmer)
- Progress shows static bar (no sweep)
- Map zoom uses instant jump (no interpolation)
- Modals and drawers appear instantly (no fade/scale)
Exception: Loading spinners may rotate slowly (2s per rotation) to indicate activity without motion.
5.6 Interruptions
MUST: Animations be interruptible.
- If a modal is closing and user opens another, the first must complete or reverse instantly
- If a drawer is sliding and user taps backdrop, it must reverse direction
- No animation queue buildup
5.7 Error and Success Animations
| Type | Animation | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Error | Subtle shake (4px, 3 cycles) | duration-navigation |
Indicate invalid input |
| Success | Checkmark draw + fade | duration-layout |
Confirm completion |
| Warning | Pulse border color | duration-attention |
Draw attention without alarm |

PART C — COMPONENTS
8. Component Architecture
Status: ✅ Specified Principle: The system shall be minimal, not maximal. Extend only when a recurring need cannot be solved with existing components.
8.0 Component Tiers
Tier 1 — Canonical Components
These define the entire design system. If these are correct, everything else follows.
| Component | Purpose | Inherits From |
|---|---|---|
| Button | Primary action trigger | — |
| Input | Text entry, form fields | — |
| Select | Choice from predefined options | — |
| Card | Content container, elevation | — |
| Modal | Overlay dialog, focus trap | — |
| Navigation | Primary wayfinding | — |
| Table | Tabular data display | — |
| Data Grid | Complex data with sorting/filtering | Table |
| Search | Find and filter | Input |
| Map Panel | Geospatial information overlay | Card |
Tier 2 — Derived Components
These build primarily on Tier 1. They introduce no new visual rules.
| Component | Purpose | Inherits From |
|---|---|---|
| Badge | Status indicator | — |
| Alert | Contextual message | Card |
| Toast | Transient notification | Card |
| Tooltip | Contextual help | — |
| Accordion | Collapsible content sections | Card |
| Tabs | Content switching | — |
| Breadcrumb | Location indicator | — |
| Pagination | Page navigation | Button |
| Empty State | No content placeholder | Card |
| Skeleton | Loading placeholder | — |
Tier 3 — Domain Components
Landvex-specific. They explicitly build on Tier 1 and Tier 2. No new visual rules.
| Component | Purpose | Inherits From |
|---|---|---|
| KPI Card | Key metric display | Card |
| Map Overlay Panel | Geospatial tool panel | Map Panel |
| Layer Selector | Map layer toggle | Select |
| Mission Status | Mission state indicator | Badge |
| Dataset Card | Data source preview | Card |
| Geospatial Inspector | Feature detail view | Card |
| Asset Summary | Asset overview panel | Card |
| Coordinate Picker | Lat/long input | Input |
| Timeline Panel | Temporal data view | Card |
8.1 Component Inheritance
Components inherit visual properties, states, and behavior from their parent. Child components may add but never override parent rules.
Button
├── Icon Button (adds icon, keeps all Button states)
├── Split Button (adds dropdown, keeps primary action)
└── Floating Action Button (fixed position, keeps Button behavior)
Card
├── KPI Card (adds metric layout, keeps Card elevation)
├── Dataset Card (adds metadata, keeps Card structure)
└── Mission Card (adds status, keeps Card padding)
Table
├── Data Grid (adds sorting/filtering, keeps Table structure)
├── Inspection Grid (adds checkboxes, keeps Data Grid behavior)
└── Asset Grid (adds thumbnails, keeps Data Grid behavior)
8.2 New Component Rule
New component is the last resort.
Before a new component may be created, verify:
- Can an existing component be used?
- Can a variant be created?
- Can a modifier be used?
- Can a new state solve the problem?
Only then may a new component be defined.
New components must:
- Inherit from an existing component when possible
- Follow the three-tier hierarchy
- Include full specification (states, ARIA, keyboard, touch, animation, acceptance criteria)
- Pass Design Review Gate
8.3 Component Specifications
Princip: Varje komponent har en egen specifikation med states, ARIA, keyboard, touch, animation och acceptance criteria.
RFC-001: Canonical Button Component
Status: ✅ Approved as reference implementation Tier: 1 (Canonical) Inherits From: — (root component)
Cognitive Purpose
Button exists to trigger actions that modify state or advance workflow. It is the primary interface between user intent and system response.
When to Use
- Primary user action (submit, confirm, save)
- Form submission
- Dialog confirmation
- Action that requires explicit user commitment
When NOT to Use
- Navigation (use Link)
- Toggling state (use Switch)
- Selecting from options (use Select)
- Secondary information reveal (use Accordion)
User Expectation
- Button is clickable
- Button responds immediately to press
- Button indicates if action is in progress
- Button indicates if action is unavailable
