Accessibility & Usability

Adequate Accessibility

Iceberg: Accessibility Considerations

Iceberg has limited accessibility at small sizes due to reduced character differentiation, so reserve it for headlines and display contexts. Decorative features may reduce legibility for users with cognitive disabilities. Always provide sufficient size contrast between display and body text.

Iceberg's Legibility

Iceberg draws legibility from its tight spacing optimized for large point sizes and exaggerated contrast, weight, or decorative features. These characteristics help readers distinguish similar glyphs such as I, l, and 1 at a range of sizes.

Iceberg's Readability

Designed exclusively for sizes above 24 pt. Display faces sacrifice small-size legibility for visual impact and personality at headline scale. Use at 16 px minimum for body text, and maintain 1.5 line-height to support comfortable reading rhythm.

Eye Strain Considerations for Iceberg

Iceberg provides a focused weight range that maintains consistent typographic color across paragraphs. Balanced stroke modulation keeps visual noise low during sustained reading sessions.

Iceberg Accessibility Recommendations

Maintain a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text when setting Iceberg. Use font sizes of at least 16 px for paragraph copy and line spacing of 1.5 or greater. Test Iceberg at 200% browser zoom to confirm line breaks and layout integrity remain intact.

Iceberg Usage Guidelines

Anchor with a neutral text serif or sans-serif. The display face should carry personality while the text face carries readability. A focused set of pairings helps designers find compatible companions for Iceberg. Establish hierarchy through size, spacing, and color rather than multiplying font families. Serve Iceberg in WOFF2 format for optimal load performance and broad browser compatibility.
