Type
Type that breathes
A short case for fluid scales on Squarespace 7.1 — and when to stop tweaking.
Fixed sizes feel stuck
Desktop headings that look perfect at 1440px often overwhelm a phone. Fluid type — clamp() between a calm min and max — keeps hierarchy intact without maintaining three separate stylesheets.
Set the ratio, then leave it
Pick a gentle scale. Adjust min for mobile comfort, max for large screens, then stop. Over-tuning every viewport usually makes type feel nervous.
Pair with spacing
Fluid type only works if line length and section padding breathe with it. If a heading grows but the margin stays rigid, the page still feels off.
