Belmond — legendary hotels and trains. Heritage travel romance, train and hotel cinematography, classic luxury. This page breaks down the measurable design decisions behind the site — the extracted color palette, typography, tone of voice — and generates a complete vibe-coding prompt that recreates the same design language in Lovable, Cursor or v0.

The vibe-coding prompt

Norrly generates a complete founding prompt from the measured values above — theme, exact hex colors, type scale, button geometry, section structure, motion rules and hard constraints. Paste it into Lovable, Cursor, v0 or Bolt to start from belmond.com's design language instead of AI defaults. A preview:

You are a world-class web designer + frontend engineer. Build an original single-page landing page in the exact design language of belmond.com (other — Belmond — legendary hotels and trains.) Do NOT clone their content or logo; recreate the FEEL. Every token below was measured from the live site — follow them precisely, they are the product.

Stack: React + Tailwind CSS (works in Lovable, v0, Bolt or Cursor as-is). Single page, production quality, fully responsive.
