Guidelines

Decisioning

• Weigh information in order: Institutional knowledge → User familiarity → Research
• Align every decision with macro bets: Velocity, Efficiency, Accuracy, or Innovation
• Define jobs-to-be-done first

Visual Hierarchy

• Primary action is obvious within 3 seconds
• 2:1 ratio minimum between heading levels
• Related items are grouped (Law of Proximity)

Accessibility

• Keyboard works everywhere
• Focus is always visible
• Color is not the only indicator
