    Design Tokens

    Our visual design is based on consistent palettes of typography, spacing units, color, and other discrete elements of style we call design tokens.

    Color

    Color is a practical and emotional tool. It conveys personality, sets a tone, attracts attention, and indicates importance.

    Elevation

    Elevation styles are crucial in a website design system as they help in creating depth and focus in user interfaces.

    Iconography

    Icons represent items and ideas in a simple graphic format. They help communicate with universal understanding.

    Layout

    Consistent layout principles allow designers and developers to efficiently build user-friendly experiences across devices and screen sizes.

    Spacing

    Consistent layout principles allow designers and developers to efficiently build user-friendly experiences across devices and screen sizes.

    Typography

    Typography is a deliberate system of letters, numbers, and characters. Good typography ensures legibility, clean aesthetics, and a well-defined information hierarchy.
