Color Harmonies

Complementary:    Opposite on wheel (high contrast)Analogous:        Adjacent colors (harmonious)Triadic:          3 equidistant colors (vibrant)Split-Comp:       Base + 2 adjacent to complementTetradic:         4 colors forming rectangleMonochromatic:    Single hue, varying saturation/lightness

Accessible Color Contrast

WCAG AA Requirements:- Normal text: 4.5:1 minimum contrast ratio- Large text (18pt+): 3:1 minimum- UI components: 3:1 minimum
WCAG AAA Requirements:- Normal text: 7:1 minimum- Large text: 4.5:1 minimum

Type Hierarchy

Display:     48-72px  (Hero headlines)H1:          32-48px  (Page titles)H2:          24-32px  (Section headers)H3:          20-24px  (Subsections)Body:        16-18px  (Readable text)Caption:     12-14px  (Secondary info)Micro:       10-12px  (Legal, footnotes)

Typography Rules

  1. Limit fonts: 2-3 maximum per project
  2. Contrast pairing: Serif + Sans-serif works well
  3. Line height: 1.4-1.6 for body text
  4. Line length: 45-75 characters optimal
  5. Letter spacing: Increase for all-caps text
  6. Alignment: Left-align body text (easier to read)

Font Pairing Examples

Headlines + Body:- Playfair Display + Source Sans Pro- Montserrat + Merriweather- Oswald + Lato- Roboto Slab + Roboto- DM Serif Display + DM Sans

Layout & Composition

Grid Systems

12-Column Grid (Most Common):├─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┬─┤│1│2│3│4│5│6│7│8│9│10│11│12│
Common Column Spans:- Full width: 12 columns- Two-thirds: 8 columns- Half: 6 columns- One-third: 4 columns- One-quarter: 3 columns- Sidebar: 3-4 columns

Spacing System (8pt Grid)

css
/* Base unit: 8px */--space-1: 4px; /* 0.5x - tight */--space-2: 8px; /* 1x - base */--space-3: 16px; /* 2x - comfortable */--space-4: 24px; /* 3x - section gap */--space-5: 32px; /* 4x - group separation */--space-6: 48px; /* 6x - major sections */--space-7: 64px; /* 8x - page sections */--space-8: 96px; /* 12x - hero spacing */

Rule of Thirds

┌───────┬───────┬───────┐│       │       │       ││   ●───┼───●   │       │  Place key elements├───────┼───────┼───────┤  at intersection│       │       │       │  points (●)│   ●───┼───●   │       │├───────┼───────┼───────┤│       │       │       │└───────┴───────┴───────┘

Visual Hierarchy Techniques

  1. Size: Larger = more important
  2. Color: Bright/saturated draws attention
  3. Contrast: High contrast = focal point
  4. Whitespace: Isolation creates emphasis
  5. Position: Top-left (F-pattern) or center
  6. Typography: Bold, different font, caps
