Modular Scale

Stack uses a modular type scale combined with varying font weights to establish a functional and visually pleasing content hierarchy. By default, each heading pushes down one measure of the base line height (26px). This ensures that when constructing new elements, a consistent rhythm can be achieved.

Stack uses EM units to ensure that typography and general spacing remain optimisied at different screen sizes and on different devices. Type and spacing scale down from a base font size of 14px, to 13px towards a mobile screen size. Try dragging this window down to the narrowest width to see the scale in action.
