Finding the right size for headlines

Centered headlines

Select the plane where the headline will be positioned. Scale down the plane to 70% of its original size. Center the headline within the smaller area, as demonstrated below.

Headlines shorter than eight characters

If a headline (whether it’s a sentence or a single word) is shorter than eight characters, the margins should be equal to half (50%) of the plane.

Left-aligned headlines

For left-aligned headlines that share the plane with other elements, the margins should be equal to half (50%) of the width of the tab.

For left-aligned headlines in extreme rectangular orientations (~1:3 and over), the margins should be equal to a third (33%) of the width of the tab.

Description text

Planes with text in Atlas Grotesk should have the same margins as centered headlines (70% active area). The text size should be a third (33%) of the headline size. 

For example, if the headline is 90px, the description text should be 30px.
