SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? AI-generated web designs tend to cluster around a few generic looks—cream backgrounds with serif displays, dark themes with acid accents, or broadsheet layouts—regardless of the brief. This Skill provides a disciplined design process that produces intentional, subject-specific visual identities instead of templated defaults. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Design Planning: Brainstorm a compact token system covering color (4-6 named hex values), typography (display, body, utility faces), layout concepts with ASCII wireframes, and a single signature element before writing code. - Self-Critique Workflow: Review the design plan against the brief to detect generic defaults, revise weak choices, then build and critique again with restraint principles. - UX Writing Guidance: Write interface copy with active voice, consistent action naming, and purposeful error and empty states. - Use Case: When asked to build a landing page for a new product, use this Skill to ground the design in the subject's world, avoid the three common AI design clichés, and deliver a page with one memorable signature element. ## Quick Start Use the frontend-design skill to create a distinctive landing page design for my new product with a deliberate color palette, typography pairing, and one signature visual element.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make AI-generated web designs look less generic?▼

Ground the design in the subject's own world—its materials, artifacts, and vernacular—rather than reaching for default palettes. Plan a compact token system with named hex colors, deliberate type pairings, and one signature element, then critique the plan against the brief before coding.

What are the common AI-generated design patterns to avoid?▼

Three overused looks are: a warm cream background with high-contrast serif display and terracotta accent, a near-black background with acid-green or vermilion accent, and broadsheet layouts with hairline rules. These are legitimate only when the brief specifically calls for them.

How should I choose typography for a web design project?▼

Pair a characterful display face used with restraint with a complementary body face, plus a utility face for captions or data if needed. Set a clear type scale with intentional weights, widths, and spacing so the typography itself becomes a memorable part of the design.

When should I use animation in web design?▼

Use animation only where it serves the subject: page-load sequences, scroll-triggered reveals, hover micro-interactions, or ambient atmosphere. One orchestrated moment lands harder than scattered effects, and excess animation can make a design feel AI-generated.

Why do my CSS styles cancel each other out?▼

Conflicting selector specificity is a common cause, especially when type-based selectors like .section clash with element-based selectors like .cta on paddings and margins between sections. Structure your selectors carefully and derive all values from a single design plan.
