01 · Template / Style guide

For template buyers

Everything on this page

is the real thing.

Not a mockup of the design system. Every swatch, type sample and button below uses the same colour tokens, text styles and components as the other pages. Change one in Framer and this page, and every page, follows.

Buyer guide · read first

Start here.

Six things to know.

A short guide for buyers. Read it once, then use the rest of this page as the reference for every colour, style and component in the template.

01

Colours

Every colour is a style under Assets › Colors, with a light and a dark value. Change a style once and every page follows; the site switches with the visitor’s system theme.

02

Text styles

All type uses the Northwind/ text styles, each with desktop, tablet and phone sizes. Change a font in the style, not on individual layers.

03

Header and footer

Both live in the Northwind layout template. Select the Header or Footer and pick a variant (shown further down this page). Use the matching Phone or Tablet variant on smaller breakpoints.

04

CMS

Services, Case Studies, Industries, Team and Insights are CMS collections. Edit items in the CMS and the lists, cards and detail pages update on their own.

05

Forms

Contact, Book a call, Account, Coming soon and the newsletter use Framer forms. Select each form and set Send To (email, webhook or a connected tool) before you publish.

06

Publishing

Set the site title, description and social image in Site Settings, connect your domain, remove demo pages you don’t need, then press Publish.

03 · Color

14 colour tokens

Graphite and paper,

one signal, used sparingly.

Dark sections sit on near-black graphite, light sections on warm paper; neither end is pure black or white. Accents come from Sanzo Wada’s combination 209: Salvia Blue, Yellow Orange and Ivory Buff. Emphasis on paper is ink. Neutrals live under Northwind/, accents under Wada 209/ in the colour styles panel.

Northwind/FAQ Item · open and closed

01

How is Northwind different from hiring an in-house AI team?

You get a team that has already shipped production systems and knows where the gap between demo and production is, without the months it takes to hire and ramp.

02

Do you work with fixed budgets?
