#
# Design philosophy: A Helsinki design studio in winter.
#
# Nord's palette is built on the principle of "polar night" and
# "snow storm" — two value groups separated by a precise perceptual
# gap. The result is a theme that feels cool without being cold,
# professional without being sterile.
#
# Color psychology: Cool blue tones promote concentration and reduce
# impulsivity (documented in Mehta & Zhu, 2009). Nord's particular
# shade of polar night (#2e3440) avoids the depression trigger of
# pure grey by maintaining a blue undertone — it's restful, not dull.
#
# Visual reference: Denis Villeneuve's "Arrival" — cool, muted,
# purposeful. Every element serves a function.
#
# Best paired with: JetBrains Mono, Victor Mono, or Source Code Pro

# --- Theme ---

# --- Window ---
# Nord's colors are scientifically placed on the CIELAB space.
# Transparency would shift those relationships. Keep it solid.

# --- Titlebar ---

# --- Cursor ---
# Block cursor in Nord's frost blue — a deliberate, confident
# marker. No blink: Scandinavian design doesn't fidget.

# --- Selection ---
# Polar Night 3 (#4c566a) — the designated "UI highlight" tier
# in Nord's architecture. Stays within the palette's logic.
