Medium-fidelity wireframes

Medium-fidelity wireframes are essentially more detailed versions of low-fidelity wireframes. They might include real copy instead of placeholder text, use grayscale or limited colors to convey visual hierarchy, and show more accurate spacing and proportions.

Medium-fidelity wireframes bridge the gap between rough sketches and polished designs. They're detailed enough to give stakeholders a clearer picture of how the product will work, while still being quick to create and easy to modify. This makes them useful for presenting to clients or conducting more focused usability testing where users can engage with realistic content and layout without being distracted by final visual styling.

Their purpose is to help communicate how aesthetic features can support essential functionality, allowing teams to refine the user experience before committing to high-fidelity designs.
