Style & Components

Guided by the inspiration drawn from the mood board, I delved into the exploration of visual styles for Spiro. My choice of typefaces centered around a clean and minimal approach, with Poppins serving as the workhorse font. This modern typeface, widely recognized in UI design, embodies clarity and legibility.

For the Spiro Header and Logo Font, I opted for Gyon Gazebo, a typeface exuding an ornate and trendy aesthetic, almost hand-drawn. It captures the essence of warmth, openness, and creativity, aligning seamlessly with the current zeitgeist.

Throughout the application, I judiciously applied a warm color palette evoking feelings of sunlight, sunset, and ease on the eyes. The dark mode iteration serves as a deliberate contrast to the standard app colors, avoiding true black and true white to soften harsh contrasts.

These selected styles act as the guiding northstar and compass for Spiro's visual design direction. Adhering to this foundational structure ensured cohesiveness throughout the app.

While the style guide provided a solid framework, occasional deviations from the norm, guided by personal judgment, injected additional character and uniqueness, all within the bounds of good taste.
