What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Emma works as our Project Manager, here at Yoke. She helps ensure projects get delivered on time and too Yoke’s high standards.

If you ask anyone at Yoke what Emma’s greatest strength is, they will likely tell you it is her ability to plan ahead.

Here are a few questions, so you can get to know Emma better…

Who inspires you to do better?

It’s not any one person - it’s all people. The older I get, the more obvious it becomes that despite all our complexities, we’re all basically trying to build community, find love and feel accepted. That’s noble!

Can design change the world?‍

It already has – in powerful ways. It’s our responsibility to be mindful of the causes and issues we’re advancing or advocating for.

If you were voted Prime Minister today, what is the first thing you would change?

I’d start by getting democratic – gathering a diverse and truly representative task force of people from across modern Britain.

I’d listen to their concerns and use what I’d learned to start prioritising policymaking. With the foundational goal of ensuring everyone has easy and equal access to the healthcare, job opportunities, nature, and housing they need to thrive

Where is your favourite place?

I have several. Big Sur, California for camping; Zion National Park, Utah for breathtaking vistas; The Butt & Oyster in Pin Mill, Suffolk

What is the number one thing we can do each day to stay happy?

Self-compassion. When you’re kinder to yourself, you’re kinder to others.
