About this style

A reading app with a tracked wordmark, serif headlines, black-and-white photography and boxed, sharp-cornered controls with hard offset shadows. Lime marks selection.

Reading deserves structure; strong borders and a serif voice frame each story like print, with one lime highlight for where you are.

What makes it recognisable

  • Tracked uppercase wordmark over serif headlines
  • Sharp boxes with hard black offset shadows
  • Boxed bottom tabs with a lime active cell
