It is noticeable that the gradation, built on a dynamic step, is clear and balanced. At the same time, the multiplicity of values is preserved.

The resulting gradation of sizes remains to be applied as a ready-made indentation system:

When several items are in close proximity to each other, they become one visual unit rather than several separate units. Otherwise, their distance should be larger and look more like several visual units. The basic purpose of proximity is to organize. To give an apparent view of the page structure and the hierarchy of information to users.

Our first reference indent and step — 8px.

To build a correct system, the following gradation is used:

Rules for elevations, borders, and blur were also developed.

09 UI Kit

More than 2.000 assets were developed in two color modes.

10 Redesign

After the redesign, the application presents a cohesive and visually appealing interface. The refined color palette enhances readability and usability, while typography choices ensure a modern look. Users now experience streamlined navigation, making interactions intuitive and efficient.

Before the redesign, the application’s design lacked cohesion, with inconsistent color palettes and typography choices. Users often faced usability issues due to cluttered interfaces and unintuitive navigation, hindering their overall experience and engagement with the platform.

11 Multi-Chain

In the revamped multi-chain section, the design focuses on clarity and simplicity. The color scheme is tailored to differentiate between various chains, ensuring easy identification. Streamlined visuals and intuitive layouts facilitate seamless navigation and interaction, enhancing the overall user experience with improved accessibility and functionality.

12 Staking

In the updated staking section, the design prioritizes user engagement and transparency. Visual elements and intuitive interfaces guide users through the staking process, making it easy to understand and participate. With clear progress indicators and informative tooltips, users can confidently engage with staking features, fostering a sense of trust and empowerment within the platform.
