Typography

One typeface, five weights from 400 to 700, and the rules for setting them.

Vaktex Sans

Vaktex Sans is our one typeface. It covers Latin, Arabic and Hebrew, and it’s variable from 100 to 900.

Weights

We use five weights from 400 to 700, each with one job. Weight carries the hierarchy, so we never set text light.

  • Subcopy 400
  • Links 450
  • Cards 500
  • Buttons 600
  • Headlines 700

Hierarchy

Size, weight and tracking move together: the bigger the type, the heavier and tighter it sets. Headlines balance onto two lines at most.

Motion

Headlines ink in word by word as they scroll into view. Key words swap to capitals.

Numbers

Figures that change use tabular numerals, so they hold still.
