the spotlight element

The spotlight element is a subtle background treatment. It is inspired by the movement of a search light and is designed to provide a way to highlight and section off content in a way that creates emotion without distracting from the actual content.

the circular container element

Icons, illustrations and photos can be enclosed in circles, which are inspired by the circle in the Searchlight logo and the idea of a spotlight beam.

We should be cautious not to over-use this element.

the photo style

Supporting photos and screenshots should be in a style that is “clipped” out and overlaid on a solid color background (most often white or pale smoke, but also

possibly cyan). A screenshot crop can be show alone (A) or applied to an image of a device’s screen (B). Most often these images should be anchored to the bottom of a

section of the website or layout.

the dashed line border

The dashed line element is designed to provide a unique way to visually divide content. The dashed line is inspired by the stripes on a flag or the edge of an airmail envelope, and it inspires a solid, familiar feel. It is most effectively used at the top or

bottom of a band of content.
