Typography

Examples of foundational typographic elements like headings, paragraphs and lists.

As Tim Brown put it:

Modular scales[…] help us achieve a visual harmony not found in compositions that use arbitrary, conventional, or easily divisible numbers.

This project uses a minor third (5:6) modular scale.

Headings are set in Industry Bold (700) or Black (800).

This Is Heading Level 1

This Is Heading Level 2

This Is Heading Level 3

This Is Heading Level 4

This Is Heading Level 5
This Is Heading Level 6
<h1>This Is Heading Level 1</h1>
<h2>This Is Heading Level 2</h2>
<h3>This Is Heading Level 3</h3>
<h4>This Is Heading Level 4</h4>
<h5>This Is Heading Level 5</h5>
<h6>This Is Heading Level 6</h6>

Body copy is set in Helvetica Neue, falling back to Helvetica or Arial. This promotes consistency with use of Helvetica in packaging while also reducing the number of typefaces to load.
