Question
What is the difference between 3/8", 1/4" and 1/8" rounded corners?
Answer
The numbers on rounded corners refer to the radius of the curve, or how much of each corner gets rounded off. A bigger number means a larger, softer curve, while a smaller number keeps the corner closer to a sharp 90-degree edge.
| Radius | Look |
|---|---|
| 3/8" | The most rounded, with the softest, most noticeable curve |
| 1/4" | A moderate curve, a middle-ground rounded look |
| 1/8" | The subtlest, closest to a standard sharp corner with just a gentle round |
Choose 1/8" for a barely-there softening, 1/4" for a balanced rounded card, or 3/8" when you want the corners to be clearly curved. Keep important text and logos away from the corners so nothing is clipped by the rounding.
