Rules For Applying Mantel Brand Styles

When creating visual diagrams or frontend components, you can apply the following style guidelines to ensure consistency with the Mantel brand identity.

Colour Scheme

  • You should aim to use the following primary colours from the Mantel brand palette.

  • You may also use tints and shades of these colours as needed, but avoid introducing non-brand colours.

Palette

Name Hex RGB

Ocean #1E5E82

rgb(30, 94, 130)

Flamingo #D86E89

rgb(216, 110, 137)

Deep Ocean #002A41

rgb(0, 42, 65)

Sky Blue #81CCEA

rgb(129, 204, 234)

Cloud #EEF9FD

rgb(238, 249, 253)

General Design Principles

Colour Hierarchy

  • Primary Actions/Elements: Ocean (#1E5E82)

  • Secondary/Supporting: Sky Blue (#81CCEA)

  • Emphasis/Accent: Flamingo (#D86E89)

  • Foundation/Authority: Deep Ocean (#002A41)

  • Background/Neutral: Cloud (#EEF9FD)

Semantic Usage

  • Use Ocean for primary actions, main navigation, success states

  • Use Sky Blue for interactive elements, information, secondary actions

  • Use Flamingo sparingly for CTAs, warnings, important highlights

  • Use Deep Ocean for text, borders, authoritative elements

  • Use Cloud for backgrounds, subtle dividers, inactive states

Consistency Rules

  • Avoid mixing colour schemes from other brands

  • Maintain consistent colour meanings across all diagrams in a project

  • When transparency is needed, use rgba values of the brand colours

  • For hover states, darken by 10-15% or lighten by 10-15% staying within brand

Mermaid Usage Guide

Core Process Elements:

  • Use 'process' for standard workflow steps

  • Use 'subprocess' for nested or child processes

  • Use 'components' for system components or modules

Interactive Elements:

  • Use 'inputOutput' for user interactions or system I/O

  • Use 'user' for user/actor specific elements

  • Use 'api' for external service connections

  • Use 'external' for third-party systems or external dependencies

Decision and Alert Elements:

  • Use 'decision' for branching logic or critical choices

  • Use 'critical' for important warnings or highlights

  • Use 'error' for error states or failure conditions

  • Use 'warning' for caution states (less severe than errors)

  • Use 'security' for security-related checkpoints or processes

Data Elements:

  • Use 'data' for data objects or data flow

  • Use 'storage' or 'database' for persistent storage

  • Use 'cache' for temporary storage or caching layers

State Elements:

  • Use 'start' for process start points

  • Use 'end' for process end points

  • Use 'success' for successful completion states

  • Use 'pending' for waiting or queued states

  • Use 'active' for currently running processes

  • Use 'complete' for finished processes

  • Use 'disabled' or 'inactive' for unavailable elements

Process Types:

  • Use 'manual' for human/manual processes

  • Use 'automated' for automatic processes

  • Use 'async' for asynchronous operations

  • Use 'sync' for synchronous operations

System Elements:

  • Use 'system' for internal system components

  • Use 'network' for network-related elements

  • Use 'queue' for message queues or buffers

  • Use 'monitoring' for logging or monitoring components

Emphasis Elements:

  • Use 'highlight' for temporarily emphasised elements

  • Use 'focus' for elements requiring attention

  • Use 'selected' for user-selected items

Supporting Elements:

  • Use 'secondary' for supporting or auxiliary elements

  • Use 'note' for annotations or explanatory text

  • Use 'comment' for inline comments or documentation

  • Use 'optional' for optional steps or components

Transparency Note

Some classes use transparency via hex alpha values (e.g., #81CCEA55):

  • Last 2 digits represent opacity: FF=100%, CC=80%, 99=60%, 66=40%, 55=33%, 33=20%, 22=13%

  • Used for: warning, cache, pending, disabled, system, network, queue, highlight states

  • This creates visual hierarchy without introducing non-brand colours

Mermaid Rules

  • Use <br> instead of \n for line breaks

  • Apply standard colour theme unless specified otherwise

  • Do NOT use round brackets ( ) within item labels or descriptions

  • Mermaid does not support unordered lists within item labels

Tailwind Configuration

module.exports = { theme: { extend: { colours: { 'brand': { 'ocean': '#1E5E82', 'flamingo': '#D86E89', 'deep-ocean': '#002A41', 'sky-blue': '#81CCEA', 'cloud': '#EEF9FD', } } } } }

Fonts & Typography

  • Where applicable, the 'Inter' typeface is used for headlines, subheadings, and body copy.

  • Favour bundling the font for offline use over relying on CDNs.

Inter CDN Fallback

If bundling is not possible, use this CDN:

<!-- HTML in your document's head --> <link rel="preconnect" href="https://rsms.me/"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://rsms.me/inter/inter.css">

:root { font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'calt' 1; /* fix for Chrome */ } @supports (font-variation-settings: normal) { :root { font-family: InterVariable, sans-serif; } }

This information should help you maintain visual consistency with the Mantel brand across diagrams and frontend components.
