Do-Nots

Please Don't:

• Add positive letter spacing to any text styling. It almost always negatively impacts readability

• Use Title Case. It complicates things and leads to mistakes & exceptions.

• Use all lowercase.

• Use multiple coloured words to make certain parts of a sentence stand out.

  • If you really need to color text, try sticking to a single color (preferably our GeckoGreen as it is the most associated with our brand).

  • Avoid colouring text when possible to avoid potential accessibility issues.

• Set body text without appropriate line height.

  • Too little (100%) or too much (200%) isn’t ideal.

  • Try sticking with 150% (our recommendation) as it works well for both readability and visual appeal.

• Use ALLCAPS text as it impact readability negatively.
