A little room to read.
A page can look good and still feel tiring. Play with text size and spacing, then see how a few small decisions change the reading experience.
A little room to read
Good ideas deserve a little breathing room. A comfortable line length helps your eyes find the next line. Space between paragraphs gives each thought a place to land.
Move a slider. Feel the difference.
The notebook
Ideas to spend time with.
Start with a longer read, or pick up a small idea to try on your next page.
Make the page easier to read.
Line length, type size, and the space between thoughts. A practical starting point for a better article page.
Small observations
Give every link a job.
“Read more” asks readers to guess. A short, specific label tells them where they are going.
Leave room for the words.
Try the real heading before you settle on a layout. Long titles belong in the design, too.
Keep the words in focus.
Use movement to explain an idea or respond to a click. Keep reading comfortable when motion is reduced.
Something worth keeping.
Browse the reading room, try an idea, and come back when you need it.
