Card & Report
Design Language.

Eight reusable surfaces — one visual family. Every card in the Sable Coast system shares the same tokens, hierarchy rules, and identity language. Designed to feel collectible, readable at any size, and premium in a dark context.

◈

Strong Hierarchy

Every card has a clear primary stat or outcome. Scannable in under two seconds.

◈

Collectible Identity

Corner brackets, foil strips, scan lines, serial IDs, barcodes. Feels earned, not generated.

◈

Intent-Based Color

Accent border = semantic meaning. Gold = identity/prestige. Red = danger. Never decorative.

◈

Stamp Language

Status overlays use the FStamp (Permanent Marker) voice. Outcome states are visible at a glance.
