## Overview

Orrick uses white and #333447 slate navy, both as ink and as solid panels, with #6aaae4 sky blue for headings on dark and links. Azo Sans runs the page, with regular weight 40px headings at a 1.43 line height and 15px body. Rows of attorney portraits carry small dark name tags, and corners stay at about 1px.

## Typography

- **Azo Sans**: display and body, 100% of the text. Use Figtree. Azo Sans is a paid typeface. Figtree is a free stand-in, not a match.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|

## Spacing

No single base unit: the values below are what the page repeats.
Values in use: 4px, 10px, 15px, 150px.

## Shape

Corner radii, smallest first: 1px, pill (9999px).

Shadows, most used first:

- `rgb(211, 203, 193) 0px 1px 0px 0px inset`
- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 4px 8px 0px`

## Components

No repeated button or card treatment was found above the fold.

## Do

- Set headings in a regular weight geometric sans, not bold.
- Alternate white blocks with slate navy blocks that carry sky blue headings.
- Show people in tight portrait rows with name tags along the bottom.

## Don't

- Use the sky blue on white for text: it reaches only 2.5:1.
- Round corners beyond a pixel.
- Use pure black ink; the dark tone is slate navy.
