Grid of varied blocks on cream, Inter type, compact scale.
What it is
A guideline skill for bento box layouts that present content as grid blocks of varying sizes. Inter throughout, a compact 12 to 32 type scale, peach and blue accents on cream.
Modular grid layout with card-like blocks, clear hierarchy, soft spacing, and subtle visual contrast for organized, scannable interfaces.
Why it matters for design
- Varying block sizes carry hierarchy, so the grid itself does the ranking.
- A compact 12 to 32 type scale fits dense text inside small tiles.
- The cream #FFF5E6 surface keeps block edges readable without heavy borders.
