Typography

Overview

Too many type sizes and styles at once can spoil any layout. A limited set of type variations are supported that work well with each other.

Usage Guide

Headline

Body Text

Pairing

Our Typography uses semantic naming to pair sizes which helps with the consistency in overall application as well as the visual hierarchy and space management.

This pairing method is ideal for text components that are directly or semi-directly related or grouped together in a card or section.

Pairing Examples

Use same size for sibling items.

Deviation

In some cases where you need higher contrast between Headline and Body, Headline can size up one or body can size down one. Do not deviate up with body text, the body text and headline size would be the same creating ineffective typographical hierarchy.

Styles

Subdued

You can deemphasize text by making it a lighter shade of grey.

A subdued line of copy can be used for disclaimers or helpful notes below form fields

Subdued headlines provide extra context to a regular headline

Italic

You can emphasize text by italicizing it.

<BodyText>In a paragraph of text, when you have words that need to be deemphasized, <BodyText inline el='span' italic>subdued text</BodyText> becomes less apparent</BodyText>

Bold

You can emphasize text by bolding it.
