Line Length

The number of characters per line influences readability. Studies indicate the following guidelines for English:

Satisfactory

45-75 characters (desktop) or 35-40 characters (mobile) per line iswidely regarded as a satisfactory line length.

Optimal

Around 66 characters (desktop) or 39 characters (mobile) is optimal.

Too long

More than 90 characters (desktop) or 50 characters (mobile) is likely too long for continuous reading.

Studies show that different aspects of reading performance such as comprehension, reading speed, method of movement, and eye movements are affected by changes in line length.


Color

Color Contrast for Accessibility

Follow the WCAG 2.0 Level AA guidelines to ensure proper color contrast.

Color Contrast Values
  • - Fail – Your text doesn’t have enough contrast with the background.
  • - AA Large – The smallest acceptable amount of contrast for type >= 18px.
  • - AA – This is the sweet spot for text sizes below below 18px.
  • - AAA – Enhanced contrast.

Main Colors

These are the splashes of color that should appear the most in the UI, and are the ones that determine the overall "look". Best for things like primary actions, links, navigation items, icons, accent borders, or text that should be emphasized.

Accent Colors

These colors should be used fairly conservatively throughout the UI to avoid overpowering the primary colors. Used an element needs to stand out, or to reinforce things like error states or positive trends with the appropriate semantic color.

Special Gradients

A beautiful and harmonious color palate will draw the user in and invite interaction; and is therefore critical to good UX.

Too many businesses rely on limited blog and web brochure platforms that are often risky, waste money and limit growth over time. They can be impersonal and stiff and work against customer-facing needs. We believe that although the web is an automated, template-laden landscape, understanding the way people interact, and communicate with companies is our most valuable asset.

Tertiary heading (h3)

Words can be like X-rays, if you use them properly—they’ll go through anything. You read and you’re pierced.

Unstyled

No way am I styling those things. Have you read about what it takes just to change their color? Psh. You have to hide the actual element and reproduce a styled shape that looks just like this but a different color. The whole thing just feels dishonest.
