Standard Values
Many of the building block classes use relative values (xs through xl, etc.) to imply their values. The following is a representation of the actual values behind the relative naming scheme.

- m
- 1.8rem (18px)
- l
- 2.1rem (21px)
- xl
- 2.6rem (26px)
- xxl
- 3.2rem (32px)
- xxxl
- 4.2rem (42px)
Font Families

Line Heights
The line height determines the total height of a line. Line heights are calculated as multiples of the font size.
- s
- 1.4

Spacings
