Material Design meets macOS. Rounded corners, soft shadows, floating panels and soft elevation — a designed feel for GNOME, GTK3, GTK4 and libadwaita apps.
Orchis ships a compact spacing scale alongside the regular one.
A lead paragraph set at a larger size for introductory content.
Body copy uses Inter and Ubuntu with tight tracking — crisp at small sizes, generous at display sizes.
Inline elements like links, bold text, emphasis, inline code,
Ctrl + C and highlighted text.
Secondary text is used for supporting copy and metadata.
Small print, footnotes and legal text.
