Buttons in the Sketchy Website UI Kit feature a hand-sketched design, with imperfect edges, creating a casual look. The kit includes various button styles, such as standard buttons, buttons with icons, submit buttons, link buttons, and tab buttons.
Headers, Footers & Hero Sections
The Header, Footer, and Hero sections of the sketchy UI kit are essential building blocks for quickly wireframing a website's structure while maintaining a creative, low-fidelity aesthetic. These components are pre-designed to help designers lay out navigation, branding, and key messaging areas without investing time in pixel-perfect details.
With header options ranging from simple menu bars to headers with search bars or dropdown menus, the kit allows you to experiment with various navigation styles. Whether you're visualizing a left-aligned menu, a center-aligned design, or an interactive search element, these headers make it easy to iterate on navigation ideas quickly. They're especially useful for testing usability in different layouts.
Footers in the kit come with built-in flexibility, featuring variations like social links, page links, and newsletter sections. This ensures that designers can quickly mock up functional areas for secondary navigation, copyright information, or customer engagement features like sign-ups.
The hero section options in the UI kit includes layouts with carousels, full-width images, and forms, giving you the tools to prototype visually impactful areas of your website. These elements are perfect for presenting key messages, calls-to-action, or showcasing products. The pre-designed options simplify the process of testing different hero styles, from stacked content to image-focused layouts.
Together, these components empower designers to experiment with core website structures, streamline discussions, and quickly iterate designs—all while keeping the process lightweight and collaborative.
Feature sections
The Feature section components in the sketchy UI kit make it remarkably simple for designers and product managers to visually convey product highlights or service details in their wireframes. With predefined layouts like feature cards, stat displays, and two-column sections, this kit allows you to emphasize functionality and structure without spending hours fine-tuning visuals.
CTA & FAQ
Pre-styled options like a simple CTA, CTA with action buttons, or one with newsletter sign-up fields enable you to test various strategies for driving user interactions. The two-column and center-aligned FAQ layouts are particularly helpful for planning content-heavy sections.
Form Elements
The Form Elements section in the sketchy UI kit streamlines the process of wireframing interactive user input areas. With components such as text inputs, dropdowns, radio buttons, and checkboxes, designers can quickly wireframe forms for any context—be it signups, surveys, or feedback collection.
Other Elements
This category includes components like hand-sketched cards for displaying content in a grid or list format, an accordion for revealing and hiding content in a collapsible manner, and sliders for interactive content display. These elements are designed to be easy to use while still fitting the playful style of the kit.
Blog & Pricing
These elements are ideal for brainstorming websites focused on blogging, SaaS platforms, or e-commerce solutions. They allow teams to experiment with content hierarchy and user flows, ensuring that both blogs and pricing pages remain engaging and intuitive during the wireframing stage.
From two-column to masonry layouts, the kit includes a variety of options to visualize blog listing sections ensuring the right balance between visuals and text. Pre-designed pricing layouts, ranging from two to four columns and feature-specific tables, save time when structuring subscription plans. Designers can test different formats to highlight plan benefits and guide user decisions.
Testimonials & Contact Form
The Testimonials & Contact Form components in the sketchy UI kit are purpose-built to streamline the process of wireframing customer-centric sections of a website. These elements are essential for highlighting user reviews and providing easy-to-use contact points, all while maintaining the lightweight and exploratory nature of low-fidelity wireframes.
Alert & Badge
The info, success, warning, and danger alerts allow you to experiment with how different types of messages—like success confirmations or error warnings—will catch the user's attention in a given layout. With their clear categorization, they make it easy to plan user interaction flows where immediate feedback is critical.
Tips for Designing Low-Fidelity Website Wireframes
Designing website wireframes, especially low-fidelity ones, is all about speed, clarity, and purpose. They help you focus on functionality and layout without being bogged down by visuals like colors, fonts, or images. Here's how to make the most of your wireframing process and effectively use the sketchy UI kit:
Before you even open your wireframing tool, define the purpose of the wireframe. Are you showcasing navigation flows, structuring content, or testing interactions? Low-fidelity wireframes are ideal for brainstorming and early feedback, so don’t overcomplicate them with too much detail.
Arrange elements to ensure the information flow feels intuitive. Use placeholders for content like "Headline goes here" or "CTA button" to convey intent.
Incorporate rectangles, circles, and lines to represent sections and divide content areas. These abstract shapes make it easier to visualize how much space each component will take without getting into design specifics.
Play with placement and styles for call-to-action (CTA) buttons and feature cards to see what works best for conversions and user focus.
Include form fields to see how users will interact with your site. Don’t worry about precise sizes or font choices—just represent functionality.
Incorporate elements that represent user feedback or statuses. These are often overlooked in early stages but are vital for user experience.
Don’t get stuck on real text or imagery. Use placeholders to approximate content and keep the process efficient.
Share your wireframes with stakeholders often to gather input on the overall layout, navigation, and user flow.
Low-fidelity wireframes aren’t meant to be perfect. Their purpose is clarity, not pixel-perfect precision.
The sketchy UI kit encourages a playful approach to wireframing. Take advantage of this informality to experiment with unconventional layouts or flows.
