Hierarchy in these type styles can be conveyed through font size, font weight, and font color. Larger-sized, heavier-weight, and darker-colored text draws more attention, and it communicates the most broad ideas (the need-to-know information). Smaller-sized, lighter-weight, and lighter-colored text draws less attention, and it communicates the most specific ideas (the nice-to-know information).

The type styles include Heading, Title, Body, Detail, Component, Code, and Monospace numbers. These styles come in a range of t-shirt sizes (such as Small, Medium, and Large) and encompass typography elements like font family, font size, line height, weight, and color. This ensures that all Adobe interfaces can maintain a predictable sense of information hierarchy. Keep in mind that a single product won't need all of these sizes, and especially at the same time. Spectrum's type styles are intentionally comprehensive to allow platform and product teams to selectively choose type styles that accommodate their unique needs. As a starting point, use a t-shirt size from each of the type styles. For example: pair Heading Medium with Title Medium, Body Medium, and Medium t-shirt sized components. If you'd like to override these styles, there's some flexibility for you to define your own typography and hierarchy as long as any customization follows Spectrum guidance for font size and color usage. Use what best fits your context and best supports your users.

Containers are used across Spectrum 2 interfaces in multiple ways, but the commonality they share is that they group related concepts together into distinct areas. Some usages of containers have more detailed guidelines. For example, a card uses a container and inherits its properties, but it can only represent a distinct object (such as an individual asset or product). A block of marketing material containing multiple concepts (like subscription information plus actions to take) is grouped together in a container, but is not considered a card. Whether broad or specific, a user should be able to readily tell the purpose of a container. Separation of containers is marked through a clear visual change, such as contrast in a background color or through spacing. All containers share a common set of rules for styles, padding, and emphasis. Image: Key examples illustrating two different types of containers, cards, and a select box, all shown in the emphasized container style. First category label, examples of card layouts. Examples of cards showing that cards have two layouts. The first example shows a card with a preview and the second example shows a card without a preview. Both cards include the Adobe Illustrator logo, a floating badge with shared icon, label 3 people. Both cards have a Title, Good things are coming, and description, Optional metadata should be kept to two or three lines. Second category label, Example of a select box.

Learn more about this in background layers. Emphasized In some situations, drop shadows are used to provide emphasis to a container or group of containers, like in a set of related cards. Emphasized containers should be used sparingly. View more about container emphasis.
