Construction · Frosted
Panels are frosted rather than clear: a soft blur, a milky translucency, and a single pale hairline instead of a lit edge.
Every style renders this same screen, so the only thing changing between two of them is the style. The component above is the file below, running.
Prompt
Design this interface in the Glassmorphic style. Panels are frosted glass over a saturated gradient field: heavy backdrop blur, a bright hairline along the edge, and nothing fully opaque. Build every surface the Frosted way: Panels are frosted rather than clear: a soft blur, a milky translucency, and a single pale hairline instead of a lit edge. Use exactly these values: background #e9e4ff, surfaces #f6f4ff, text #1b1633, secondary text #544d78, accent #5b3df5 with #ffffff on it; corner radius 10/16/24px; 1px solid borders; a single soft ambient shadow; system-ui for body at 14px, line height 1.45; 4px spacing grid, regular spacing; 22px backdrop blur on floating surfaces. Never: flat opaque cards; hard black outlines; square corners; grey backgrounds. Dark mode uses background #0e0b1e, surfaces #191333, text #efecff, accent #a78bfa — the same style, not an inverted one.
The numbers in this prompt are printed from the tokens below, so it cannot drift from what the specimen renders.
What carries the look
- frosted backdrop blur
- bright edge hairline
- saturated gradient field
- nothing fully opaque
What this style refuses
- flat opaque cards
- hard black outlines
- square corners
- grey backgrounds
The refusals are the half that keeps generated interfaces from converging — a prompt that only says what to add gets the default look.
