01 Colour System

Sculpted Peaks uses a warm, stone-inspired palette that reflects natural materials: stone, wood, and brass. The system is built around warm neutrals with a single dark primary (#212121) and a gold accent (#AB8C52). No saturated colours are used, anywhere.

02 Typography

All type uses two clean sans-serif typefaces. Hierarchy is communicated through size and weight, not decorative variation. Headings use Poppins at weight 500. Body copy uses Figtree at weights 400, 500, and 600. No other typefaces are used.

04 Channel Usage

The colour and component system above applies to the website. Tone and weight of elements should shift slightly by channel, but always stay within this palette.

Meta Ads

Lead with the sculpture. Short hooks, visual-first. Use dark (#212121) or warm neutral (#F3EFE7) as ad backgrounds. Gold (#AB8C52) can accent text overlays. Avoid busy or high-contrast palettes that compete with the sculpture.

Email

Use the same background hierarchy as the website: alternate #FFFFFF and #F3EFE7 sections. Gold (#AB8C52) for headings and CTA buttons. Keep design minimal. Product photography should dominate.

Print & Packaging

The custom wooden crate and kraft paper wrapping are part of the brand expression. Do not add heavy graphic elements. Warm neutrals (#E3D5BD, #F3EFE7) pair well with unbleached kraft. Brass plaque engraving uses #212121 on natural brass.


05 Quick Reference Rules

Do
  • Use #212121 as the primary CTA colour. It outperforms multi-colour CTAs.
  • Use #AB8C52 (gold) for secondary CTAs, star ratings, and accent highlights.
  • Alternate section backgrounds: #FFFFFF and #F3EFE7.
  • Keep all borders at 1px with #D1CDC4 throughout.
  • Use #A3957A for the footer only. Not body sections.
  • Refer to stone as "real stone" or "solid stone" in copy.
  • Refer to all items as "sculptures." Never "products" or "art pieces."
Do Not
  • Do not use bright or saturated colours outside this palette.
  • Do not use em dashes in any copy.
  • Do not name the stone type (andesite, ciolite, etc.) in customer-facing materials.
  • Do not refer to sculptures as "exact replicas" or promise CNC-level precision.
  • Do not use the word "team" when referring to the brand.
  • Do not overplay Bali or volcanic stone in outbound marketing.
  • Do not use #A3957A for large sections. Footer and editorial spotlights only.
  • Do not use more than two background colours in a single email or landing page.

06 Shopify Colour Schemes

The Hyper theme uses five named colour schemes applied section by section in the theme editor. Each scheme controls background, text, buttons, and borders for that section. Schemes are never mixed within a single section — the entire section inherits one scheme.

Brand Tokens (Reference)

These tokens underpin all five schemes. Use them as the single source of truth when configuring the theme editor.

Usage Note

Never place Cream (1) directly next to Parchment (3) without a White (2) section between them. They are too similar in warmth and will blend together visually. Always use White (2) as the separator.
