Decisions — RM Beauty Lounge
- 2026-08-10 — Draft-first spec site for an uncontacted lead. Pat asked for the full
pipeline from the Google listing (place id ChIJ0enJJq4xjEcR46dopscL3VA) with a Cloudflare
preview. No operator input exists; unknowns are visible [TBD: …] placeholders, the site
ships with draft ribbon + noindex, and the dossier surface stays linked for review.
- Category: beauty-nail-salon-or-aesthetic-clinic as a one-pager — see category-mapping.md.
- Brand: greenfield "porcelaine & bordeaux" editorial. No existing site/logo. Tokens derive
from the only real brand material: the 8 owner-attributed portfolio photos on Google (porcelain
and soft-grey backdrops, milky-nude gel work, one deep-burgundy manicure, one jet-black
manicure). Full rationale per token in brand/styleguide.md.
- Typography: Bodoni Moda (display didone — fashion-editorial, echoes the precise glossy
work) + Hanken Grotesk (body). Deliberately not reused from the portfolio's previous sites
(Fraunces, Playfair, Cormorant, Marcellus, Karla, Jost… — see distinctiveness review).
- Stack: Astro 5 static one-pager, conventions copied from kenna-coiffure (tokens generator,
copy-deck loader, dossier surface generator, draft ribbon). Mechanics shared, visuals not.
- Gallery: owner-attributed Google photos as draft placeholders (rights pending — cautions.md);
SEO filenames; astro:assets optimization; ≤500KB gate.
- Primary CTA: call 079 873 27 81 (only public booking channel). Sticky mobile call bar.
- Copy deck section names (home): meta, hero, hero-facts, institut, services, gallery,
gallery-images, formations, reviews, reviews-link, hygiene, visit, visit-facts.
- Dossier path:
dossier-e2e86c93(obfuscated, from src/config.mjs).
- 2026-08-10 — primary pushed from #571E2C to #6B1F32 after check-distinctiveness flagged
RGB proximity to silvia-jayet-reflexologie's near-black green; brighter bordeaux also gives the
CTA more presence. Gates now clean (tokens ✓, distinctiveness ✓).
- Hero layout: text-left/photo-right exists in recent siblings, but differentiated by the
arch-masked portrait image (nail-silhouette echo), porcelain field, and didone display.
Distinctiveness review
- Swap test: bordeaux-lacquer didone editorial ≠ any sibling project (orange Kenna, gold/noir
Ali Barber, sage Silvia, blue Zecevic…). Palette from the business's own manicure photos.
- No hard-coded hex/px in components — all via tokens.css custom properties.
- Fonts unused elsewhere in the portfolio roster.
