Typography & Colors

Visuals for smart clarity

  • We selected Helvetica Neue for its familiarity, readability, and alignment with Molecule’s clear communication goals. The font supports user trust and reinforces the brand’s scientific and health-focused identity without drawing unnecessary attention to itself. 



    Our color choice centers around green, symbolizing freshness, safety, and environmental care. It acts as both a functional highlight and an emotional anchor throughout the interface. Neutral backgrounds and minimal accents allow the main content and key features to stay in focus. These decisions were made to ensure the Molecule UX/UI remains consistent, accessible, and easy to navigate.
