Typography
One family, two temperatures, one hierarchy.
Typeface
STRIDE uses one family, Inter Tight, at two temperatures: Light for display, Regular and up for reading.

Weights
Six weights are in use. Light and ExtraBold are display-only.
Hierarchy
Five steps cover every surface. Size and weight do the work — never colour, never capitals.

Typesetting
- Sentence case, with a capital only at the start. Capitals are for three-word labels at most.
- Set type straight: no italics for emphasis, no text on a curve.
- Left-align anything longer than one line.
- Tighten display type as it grows: −3% from 44 px up.
