Evolve uses a modular type scale combined with varying font weights to establish a functional and visually pleasing content hierarchy. By default, each heading pushes down one measure of the base line height (26px). This ensures that when constructing new elements, a consistent rhythm can be achieved.
Evolve uses REM units to ensure that typography and general spacing remain optimized at different screen sizes and on different devices. Type and spacing scale down from a base font size of 16px, to 14px towards a mobile screen size. Try dragging this window down to the narrowest width to see the scale in action.
