Strava — Design System
Strava trains in its custom Boathouse face at app-honest sizes (14-32px/600), athlete photography full-bleed, and 4px-radius signup cards. Segment maps and kudos feeds carry the energy — the social network for sweat keeps its type compact because the athletes' numbers are the display face.
