Airbnb

Airbnb's design system centers on a warm, accessible interface driven by the iconic Rausch red (#ff385c) as the primary action color. The system employs a generous rounded-corner language (20px default, 32px for buttons) paired with a subtle multi-layer shadow elevation system that creates depth without visual heaviness. Typography is anchored in Airbnb Cereal VF, a custom sans-serif optimized for readability across body, heading, and label roles. The layout favors information-dense card grids with consistent 4–12px spacing rhythms, supporting rapid scanning and discovery of travel accommodations. Color palette is restrained: dark text (#222222), secondary grays (#6a6a6a), and minimal accent usage create a clean, trust-focused aesthetic that prioritizes content (property images) over decoration.

Works with your agent

Drop DESIGN.md into your repo. Your agent does the rest.

DESIGN.md pairs YAML design tokens with a markdown rationale, so any AI coding agent can read it. No plugin, no SDK, no integration step.

FAQ

Common questions about Design Extractor

Short answers to the main questions developers ask before extracting a website's design into a DESIGN.md.

What is a DESIGN.md?

A DESIGN.md is a plain-text design system document that AI coding agents read to generate consistent UI. It is the design counterpart to AGENTS.md: humans and agents can both read it, edit it, and enforce it. Under the hood it has two layers. YAML front matter holds machine-readable design tokens like colors, typography, and spacing. The markdown body explains the design rationale.

What's inside a DESIGN.md?

A DESIGN.md usually includes eight canonical sections in order: Overview, Colors, Typography, Layout, Elevation and Depth, Shapes, Components, and Do's and Don'ts. The YAML front matter encodes the exact token values. The markdown body explains how and why to apply them. Sections can be omitted if they are not relevant, and extra domain-specific sections can be added.

How do I get a DESIGN.md from a URL?

Paste any public website URL into Design Extractor and click extract. In a few seconds you get a DESIGN.md you can copy, plus Tailwind v4, CSS variables, and DTCG design tokens. No signup. Drop the DESIGN.md into your repo and your AI agent reads it as a style reference for Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or Stitch.

Which AI coding tools can use DESIGN.md?

Any AI coding tool that reads markdown files from your project directory can use DESIGN.md. That includes Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other coding assistants with file access. Drop the DESIGN.md into your project root or a docs folder and reference it in your prompt.

What websites can I extract?

Any publicly accessible website. Design Extractor analyzes the live page as rendered in a browser. It works with static sites, SPAs, and server-rendered pages. The site must be reachable via a standard HTTP/HTTPS URL.
