brutalist-academic-ui
Skriptoteket-specific brutalist/academic UI design. Use for Vue/Vite SPA and SSR templates when you want grid-based layouts, systematic typography, and high-contrast “academic” aesthetics, while staying compatible with Skriptoteket’s pure-CSS + HuleEdu token stack (no Tailwind).

Brutalist Academic UI
Opinionated design skill for interfaces where intellectual rigor, typographic precision, and structural honesty matter.
Skriptoteket Compatibility (must follow)
- No Tailwind / utility CSS frameworks (see
docs/adr/adr-0029-frontend-styling-pure-css-design-tokens.md). - Use HuleEdu tokens + component classes (see
.agent/rules/045-huleedu-design-system.mdandsrc/skriptoteket/web/static/css/huleedu-design-tokens.css). - Prefer existing classes before inventing new ones:
.huleedu-btn,.huleedu-card,.huleedu-link,.huleedu-table,.huleedu-row.
When to Use
Activate when user:
- Builds websites, landing pages, dashboards, documentation sites
- Needs institutional or academic visual language
- Mentions: "brutalist", "academic", "minimal", "no gradients", "serious UI"
- Wants to avoid AI-generated aesthetic (purple gradients, Roboto, pill buttons)

Quick Reference
Banned
- Purple/startup gradients
- Roboto, Open Sans, Lato, Inter
- Tailwind / utility-first styling that bypasses tokens
border-radius>var(--huleedu-radius-lg)(8px) for containers- Decorative blobs, floating shapes
- Soft shadows, backdrop blur
- Scale/bounce hover animations
Font Stack
/* Use HuleEdu token fonts (defined in src/skriptoteket/web/static/css/huleedu-design-tokens.css). */
font-family: var(--huleedu-font-serif); /* long-form reading */
font-family: var(--huleedu-font-sans); /* UI */
font-family: var(--huleedu-font-mono); /* code/ids */
Spacing Scale
/* Representative spacing tokens (4px base scale). */
--huleedu-space-1: 4px; --huleedu-space-2: 8px; --huleedu-space-3: 12px; --huleedu-space-4: 16px;
--huleedu-space-6: 24px; --huleedu-space-8: 32px; --huleedu-space-12: 48px; --huleedu-space-16: 64px;
Color Palette
/* Use HuleEdu tokens for all color decisions (no hardcoded hex). */
--huleedu-navy: #1C2E4A; /* ink */
--huleedu-canvas: #F9F8F2; /* paper */
--huleedu-burgundy: #4D1521; /* accent / CTA / attention */
--huleedu-warning: #D97706;
--huleedu-error: #DC2626;
Core Principle
The best interface is one where you notice the content, not the interface. Every element earns its place. Typography does the work. Whitespace is structure.
