Paddings & Margins Principles (draft)

Blog: Web Design Education

We have analyzed the ENTIRE internet but have not found any rules or recommendations for using the margin and the padding. There are many articles about technical usage, but there was no information on how to apply it ideologically. We have created recommendations for ourselves and promote this ideology in the interface and imports. We highly recommend using it for those who make websites.

Good website attributes:

  1. Automatic Mobile;
  2. Easy Copy/Delete/Move Plugins;
  3. Understandable Structure (elements/groups/blocks).

Rules:

All brothers are maximum similar.
Plugins (Elements, Atoms):

  • Margins mostly (if possible same from all sides)
  • Paddings very rare

Layouts (Organisms):

  • Paddings mostly
  • Sizes are multiple (if possible). Deeper = smaller
