# Tanzania Specialist: Olive Dark-Mode With Square Gold CTAs

## Overview

A confident, conversion-first travel UI aimed at safari planners and honeymooners who value expert guidance. The interface uses dark-olive surfaces with high-contrast white text and flat gold accents for actions. Typography balances a robust sans for structure with a hand-drawn script for warmth. Spacing is generous but not airy, keeping dense content (itineraries, reviews) scannable.

## Colors

- **primary (#ffffff):** Core text on dark surfaces, form inputs, and icon highlights.
- **secondary (#4c2c1c):** Deep umber accent for badges, ratings, or emphasis in headers.
- **tertiary (#ffbe3d):** Action color for primary CTAs, price flags, and promotional chips.
- **neutral (#465b2d):** Default surface/background and secondary button fill.
- **border (#374151):** Subtle dividers, card outlines, and input borders on dark surfaces.
- **brand-gardener-green (#5b6424):** Alternate dark section background and hero overlay blocks.
- **brand-haven (#a4b48c):** Muted supporting tint for highlights, tags, or subtle backgrounds.
- **surface ({colors.neutral}):** Alias to the olive surface for containers and cards.
- **on-surface ({colors.primary}):** Alias to white for all text placed on dark blocks.

## Typography

- Headline LG — Museo Sans, 60px, 900, tight 1.0 line-height and +0.05em tracking for impactful H1s and marquee claims. Proprietary (Adobe/self-hosted). Substitutes: Source Sans 3 Black, Montserrat Black, Nunito Sans ExtraBold.
- Headline MD — Museo Sans, 36px, 900, 1.25 line-height and +0.1em tracking for section leads and hero statements. Proprietary. Substitutes: Source Sans 3 Bold, Montserrat Bold, Nunito Sans Bold.
- Headline SM — Dk Liquid Embrace, 30px, 400, 1.2 line-height and +0.05em tracking for short, characterful subheads. Proprietary. Substitutes: Caveat Brush, Pacifico, Merienda.
- Headline XS — Museo Sans, 18px, 400 for card titles and small section labels.
- Body MD — Museo Sans, 16px, 400, roomy line-height 2.0 and +0.079em tracking for long-form copy and feature lists. For builds without Museo Sans, prefer Source Sans 3 Regular with the same sizes and rhythm.

## Layout

Spacing follows an 8px base with steps at 8/16/28/40/56. Use 56px for section padding, 40px for major gaps between blocks, 28px for intra-section spacing, 16px for card padding and form gutters, 8px for tight element pairs. Hero content stacks left with a right-aligned form card on larger screens; itinerary tiles arrange in a responsive grid. Maintain generous vertical rhythm to keep dense content readable.

## Elevation & Depth

Depth is restrained. Small and medium shadows add lift to overlays and interactive cards; large and inner shadows are disabled. Hierarchy relies on tonal contrast between olive surfaces and white text, square gold buttons, and occasional borders in #374151 to separate dense regions (menus, review lists).

## Shapes

Buttons are strictly square (0px radius) to emphasize decisiveness and grid alignment. Cards and media containers use a soft 8px radius for friendliness without losing structure. Keep radii consistent: 0px for actions; 8px for content blocks and imagery.

## Components

Button variants and card:
- Primary Button — Background #ffbe3d, text #465b2d, 0px radius, 16px×28px padding, 54px height. Use for main CTAs like "Start Customizing" and "Make a request".
- Secondary Button — Background #465b2d, text #ffffff, 0px radius, same sizing; place on light photography or alongside the primary.
- Link Button — Text #465b2d, 0px radius; use for tertiary actions.
- Card — Background #465b2d, text #ffffff, 8px radius, 16px padding; default container for itinerary tiles and compact content blocks.

Distinctive components on this page:
### Language & Currency Switcher Bar
- Compact utility row in the header. Text in #ffffff on dark olive; dividers in #374151. Keep hit targets to 40–54px height to align with button sizing.
### Ratings Strip
- Two review sources with star icons and scores. Use Museo Sans at 18px for labels, white text on olive, and a thin border or sm shadow to separate it from the hero.
### Hero Trip-Planner Card
- Right-aligned overlay with Adults, Children, and Arrival Date fields. Card uses #465b2d background, white labels, and a primary CTA (#ffbe3d) at 54px height.
### Benefits Row
- Five bullet items with icons under the hero. Set in Body MD (16px/2.0) with white text; use brand-haven (#a4b48c) sparingly for icon tints.
### Itinerary Tiles Grid
- Each tile is a card: 8px radius, 16px padding. Price badge uses #ffbe3d with #465b2d text; titles in Headline XS (18px) and body in Body MD.
### Mega-Nav with Request CTA
- Category links (Safaris, Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar, Discover) plus a standout primary action. Keep the action in #ffbe3d and 0px radius to remain dominant.
### Testimonials List
- Review excerpts with author and date. Use 16px body copy, generous 28–40px vertical spacing, and sm shadow or border separators for scannability.
### Cookie Consent Modal
- Full-width or modal treatment with dark background and a gold primary action; secondary action on neutral olive with white text.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do keep white text (#ffffff) on olive surfaces (#465b2d or #5b6424) for contrast; avoid mid-tone-on-mid-tone combinations.
- Do reserve the gold (#ffbe3d) for the most important CTAs and price badges; limit to one primary action per view.
- Do keep buttons square (0px radius) and 54px high; mixing radii weakens the visual language.
- Don't set long sentences in the script face; keep Dk Liquid Embrace for short subheads only.
- Don't add heavy drop shadows; use the provided sm/md elevation or borders (#374151) to separate layers.
- Don't change the card padding (16px) or radius (8px); consistency keeps dense grids readable.
