# Palette's UX Journal

## 2026-05-15 - Branding and Navigation Consistency
**Learning:** Inconsistent branding (logo styles, navigation prefixes) across pages can disrupt the "industrial/terminal" immersion and make the site feel less cohesive. Visual shifts on hover due to border additions are a common micro-UX annoyance that can be solved by pre-initializing transparent borders.
**Action:** Unify logo styling, use consistent navigation patterns (like the `/` prefix), and use transparent borders to prevent layout shifts.
