Constraints

Scale

• MUST use a mathematical ratio for the type scale (1.25, 1.333, 1.5 between sizes)
• Wide range (12px to 72px): dramatic hierarchy, suits editorial and marketing
• Narrow range (14px to 24px): subtle hierarchy, suits dense products
• NEVER use random sizes. If it's not on the scale, it shouldn't exist.
• MUST limit to 4-6 sizes per screen maximum with clear justification for each
