# Itsnicethat

> Extracted from [https://www.itsnicethat.com/](https://www.itsnicethat.com/) on 2026-11-12 by Emblematic. Every value below was read from the rendered DOM (computed styles, `document.fonts`, and the fonts Chrome actually used to paint text), not estimated from pixels. When the YAML front matter and this prose disagree, the YAML wins. Copy values from this file exactly; don't transcribe them from memory. Don't copy logos, imagery, illustrations or marketing copy.

## Overview

Itsnicethat uses a light canvas (#FFFFFF) with a palette led by #8147FF. Type is set in **Labil Variable** (display + body), with 18px body text. Layout: 1200px container, top-static+transparent navigation, 12 sections. Built with react, google-tag-manager, cloudflare, cloudfront.

## Colors

Area-weighted from painted backgrounds, text and borders on the 1440px light capture. Roles are inferred from usage (largest background, most text, interactive fills). Every hex is an exact computed value; a role marked *unverified* is a best guess that has not passed review, so its canonical token (e.g. `primary`) is left out of the front matter.

| Token | Hex | OKLCH | Role | Share of paint | CSS variable |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `background` | `#FFFFFF` | 1 0 0 | bg | 60.0% | `--color-base-white-100` |
| `on-surface-variant` | `#2B2B2B` | 0.289 0 0 | muted | 11.4% | `--mineshaft` |
| `primary` | `#8147FF` | 0.576 0.253 290.6 | accent | 6.7% | `--color-brand-primary-purple-80` |

Contrast: text on background 21:1, muted text 14.16:1, accent 4.91:1.

Gradients in use: `linear-gradient(rgb(255, 255, 255) 20%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 20%)`.

The site does not change under `prefers-color-scheme: dark`.

## Typography

| Family | Role | Weights | Share of text | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **Labil Variable** (CSS: `LabilVariable`) | display, body | 400 | 80.5% | webfont |
| **Labil** | other | 400, 500 | 11.3% | webfont |
| **Bradford** | other | 400 | 8.2% | webfont |

Declared in `@font-face` but not used to paint text on this page: GT Planar. Don't treat these as the page's fonts.

Scale (px): 11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 25, 40. Effective ratio ≈ 1.491 (close to a perfect fifth). Body 18px at line-height 1.278; display 40px with tracking 0.025em. Headings are title case. On a 390px viewport the body is 18px and display 28px.

## Layout

Spacing follows a 5px base unit; the most used steps are 5, 8, 10, 12.5, 16, 20, 40, 60, 120px. Sections open with about 160px of space before their first line of text. Content sits in a 1200px container. Text density 0.058 (text area / page area).

Section order (desktop). Kinds below the review threshold are shown as *section*:

1. **nav** (160px, bg #FFFFFF)
2. **hero** — “The Nice Feed” (3384px, bg #FFFFFF)
3. **section** (557px, bg #FFFFFF)
4. **section** — “The next generation of creative talent: introducing Ones to Watch 2026” (960px, bg #FFFFFF)
5. **section** — “Projects + Creatives” (1014px, bg #FFFFFF)
6. **section** — “Insight + Opinion” (708px, bg #FFFFFF)
7. **section** — ““Designing a good poster is a dark art” – highlights from this year’s INTL poste” (1020px, bg #FFFFFF)
8. **section** — “Resources + Advice” (831px, bg #FFFFFF)
9. **section** — “Culture + Lifestyle” (1044px, bg #FFFFFF)
10. **section** — “Explore over 580 inspiring talks on the new Nicer Tuesdays platform” (3339px, bg #FFFFFF)
11. **newsletter** — “It's Nice That Newsletters” (680px, bg #2B2B2B)
12. **footer** (850px, bg #2B2B2B)

## Elevation & Depth

Style: layered. Most used shadows:

- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 24px 38px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 9px 46px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 11px 15px 0px`
- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px -11px 15px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 24px 38px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 9px 46px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08) 0px 11px 15px 0px`

## Shapes

Dominant corner radius 0px; radii in use: pill. Borders: none.

## Components

- **button-primary**: backgroundColor `#8147FF`, textColor `#FFFFFF`, rounded `9999px`, padding `0px 20px`, height `49px`, fontFamily `Labil`, fontSize `13px`, fontWeight `400` (e.g. “Search”)
- **input**: rounded `0px`, height `50px`, padding `15px 20px`, backgroundColor `#EFEFEF4D`

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do reserve `#8147FF` for primary actions and highlights; it covers only 6.7% of the painted page.
- Do set body copy in Labil Variable at 18px / 1.278.
- Don't introduce font weights beyond 400, 500.
- Do keep corners at 0px for most controls.
- Do snap spacing to multiples of 5px.
- Don't copy this site's logos, illustrations, photography or copy; use the system, not the brand assets.
