Design Highlights
Mariner Teal Typography
Headings utilize a specific muted teal (#4A8B8C) that offers a softer, more sophisticated alternative to standard black or navy blue.
Lantern Glow Background
The base color is a warm ivory (#FFF8E7) rather than stark white, simulating the inviting warmth of a beacon light.
Beacon Alignment
A strictly centered layout creates a strong vertical axis, mimicking the upright stature of a lighthouse tower.
Architectural Banding
Horizontal dividers are styled to resemble the painted stripes of coastal towers, providing thematic section breaks.
Mist Gradient Accents
Subtle gradients in pale teal (#D4E9E2) at the header and footer edges suggest the atmospheric haze of the coastline.
Questions About This Template
While possible, we recommend sticking to the warm ivory or a cream color to maintain the 'lantern glow' effect that defines the template's mood.
A textured, matte cream cardstock is ideal as it reinforces the organic, sandy warmth of the color palette and prevents glare.
This design works best for concise, curated menus. The centered alignment can become difficult to read with heavy blocks of text, so we recommend it for single-page or bi-fold formats.
Circular or oval-cropped images work best, placed centrally at the top or bottom to maintain the vertical symmetry of the beacon design.
Yes, the #4A8B8C teal is specifically chosen for its luminance and contrast against the ivory background, ensuring legibility even in romantic, dim lighting.
