BR-P18L
Three complete product design systems
Each candidate is a whole system, not a colour change: its own navigation, control library, documents list and grid, document editor, control laboratory and logo. Open a candidate and use it — the mockups are clickable and responsive. Design exploration — sample data, nothing here is real.
Superseded design history — Candidate 2 (Blue Vault) was selected; logo 2B is canonical.
There is no selection control on this page. The choice belongs to the Product Owner, and nothing here records or anticipates a decision. No candidate touches pilot data, storage or any provider.
Candidate 1
bobby receiptsLedger Signal
Sharp, editorial, high-confidence.
A finance-desk system with black controls, a hard coral signal and dense typographic tables. It looks like a serious ledger, not a SaaS template.

Candidate 2

Slick, focused, premium application workspace.
A dark-rail product workspace with a bright blue action language, layered popovers and a thumbnail-first library that switches instantly to a dense list.

Candidate 3

Friendly, spacious, operational.
A calm white workspace with coloured category markers, supplier marks in the list and an amber accent reserved for the things a human must decide.

Side-by-side comparison
| Dimension | 1. Ledger Signal | 2. Blue Vault | 3. Clear Desk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Navigation | Light sidebar, black selected item, coral rule marker | Dark navy rail, blue selected state, counts inline | White sidebar, coloured category markers, sky selected pill |
| Controls | Black primary, coral action, 4px radius, hard borders | Blue primary, soft blue secondary, 10px radius, layered popovers | 42px tactile flat controls, sky primary, amber decisions |
| List and grid | Dense table first, thumbnail grid on demand | Thumbnail grid first, segmented switch to list | Visual list with supplier marks; equally complete card grid |
| Editor | Paper canvas centre, workbench panel right | Dark rail, neutral canvas, white work panel | Soft cards and dividers, still dense enough for real work |
| Tone | Editorial, exact, confident | Product-led, efficient, modern | Warm, plain-spoken, operational |
| Accessibility | Ink on paper at 17:1; accent only above 4.5:1 on white | Blue on white 5.4:1; status never colour-only | Ink 13:1; amber used with text, never colour alone |
Desktop and mobile proof
Each candidate is drawn at desktop width and at a 380px mobile frame, so the same system can be judged in both presentations before anything is adopted.

Superseded design history — Candidate 2 (Blue Vault) was selected; logo 2B is canonical. These routes are design prototypes. They never read or write pilot documents, never call a provider and never change the canonical brand or the live application styling.
