The Wordmark

The symbol

- when logo legibility is compromised. If the size of the logo would make the wordmark illegible.
- when space is extremely limited. For example, when the logo must live within a square or circle shape.

Grid
We used a 12 column grid container (1170px) with a 30px gutter between columns.
Spacing
Vertical Spacing
Distance between elements should be always a multiples of 10. Some examples of spaces:
- between blocks - 160 px;
- inside the block between groups - 80 px;
- inside of the group - 60 px, ecc
Horisontal spaCing
Distance between elements should be always a multiples of 8. So, for example,
the spacing between cards - 32 px.
Background
Vertical Spacing
Background can be in 4 following variants. On dark background can be used White text #FFFFF, on light background - Dark text #151B25
Accessibility
Pay attention on the color contrast. Users can be able to distinguish various text and non-text elements. Higher contrast makes objects easier to see.
Contrast ratios represent how different one color is from another color, commonly. The greater the difference is between the two numbers in the ratio, the greater the difference in relative luminance between the colors.
Some reccomendation for contrast using for text:- for large text (from 18 px in bold, from 24 px in recular) we use 3:1 against the background;- for small text - 4.5:1 against the background.
Good contrast vs bad contrast examples
