Creating The Vessel, three rules

Summary

A text-only specification page laying out the three construction rules for The Vessel in parallel columns: corner radius, stroke width, and type padding.

Visual description

Black background, green "7.0" / "Vessel" header, white "60" top-right, and a "Creating The Vessel" sidebar label with a short caption. The lower two-thirds holds three text columns, each headed by a green subhead: "Corner radius" (divide shortest edge by 6, with min/max radii per format), "Stroke width" (regular = longest edge / 100, heavy = / 50), and "Type padding" (compact at 90%, wide at 70% of the Vessel width). Each column mixes white rule statements, gray body notes, and small bold size tables. The upper half is empty.

Key takeaway

Compressing three independent construction rules into three aligned columns, each with a green subhead and the same heading-rule-note-table rhythm, so a dense spec stays scannable. Anchoring the columns to the lower half leaves calm negative space up top.

Reuse notes

A good model for a rules-of-construction page where several parameters need defining at once. The repeated column structure makes it easy to add a fourth rule. Best on dark with one accent color reserved for subheads. Genuinely dense, so keep it for reference pages, not overview slides.
