Navbars allow users to move around digital products.

Best Practice

  • Navbars contain links to either another page in the digital product or parts of the current page.
  • Tailor them to your agency’s needs by changing some aspects of their appearance.
  • Do not remove the word “Menu” from the button that expands the navigation .
  • If you emphasize a link, make sure it is either the first or last link in the list.

Usage

Navbar Minimal

  • Directs users to a single action
  • This may be used on a landing page or a single-page website

Navbar Basic

  • Presents 3 - 5 links to the user
  • Contains one visually-emphasized link
  • If you emphasize a link, make sure it is either the first or last link in the list

Navbar Icons Links

  • Well-suited for pages behind a login of a web application
  • Displays an agency logo
  • Features a set of links composed of an Icon over text
