HarmonyOSデザイン / 2019– / Style / Platform Screen Languages

Huawei's visual language reorganizes cards, spacing, arcs, variable type and translucent light materials across different screen sizes and connected devices, favoring continuity of information and action over one fixed screen.

Large rounded cards grouping information by function / Wide space on light fields with a few saturated accents / Arcs, concentric circles and gentle scaling for operation states / Cards and variable type recomposed to suit device size

Best used for
Recomposing the same information across phones, tablets, vehicles and wearables · Explaining continuity across devices through shared cards, motion and hierarchy
Type
Adapt the weight and width of a variable sans to the display and enlarge short headings and numbers.
Composition
Group by function; spread cards sideways on wide screens and stack them by importance on small ones.
Material
Start with bright neutrals, reserve diffusion and translucency for the control layer, and keep one accent family.
Caution
Rounded cards alone are not HarmonyOS. Information priority and action continuity must survive the move between devices.
