Events date tiles

Upcoming events as tear-off calendar leaves: each tile has a month strip with the weekday, the day of the month as a big numeral, the event’s title, its time and price, and a ruled book link at the foot, all tiles level at every width.

The signature moment

Every event is a calendar leaf

Each tile is a calendar leaf: an inverted month strip with the weekday at its far end, then the day of the month as the largest thing on the tile. The tiles are a grid of 15rem minimum columns, four across on a laptop, two on a tablet and one on a phone; each is a vertical flex card whose middle grows, so the book links sit level on one line however long a title runs.

Overview

Upcoming events as leaves torn from a wall calendar: a month strip, the day as a big numeral, the event, its time and price, and a book link on a rule at the foot. It sits in the listings section beside listing-cards, where a number is bigger than a name: here the number is the date, and the tile is a calendar page.

Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast

What it inherits from your theme

  • Typeface. The base states no font family.
  • Palette. Tiles try role-plate and role-plate-text with a role-rule hairline; the month strip is your contrast with base labels; the numerals, titles and links inherit the tile's text colour.
  • Links. Transparent, underlined core buttons.

What it decides for itself

  • The numeral. Off the ladder on purpose: clamp(4rem, 7vw, 6rem).
  • The titles. The large rung.

The Crumb look

Part of the Crumb Pattern Set, one café's whole site in one design language: oat ground #f4ecdf, espresso ink #2b1d16, muted cocoa #5c4a3f, milk cards #fbf7f0 on oat hairlines #dccfbf, terracotta #b3462d labels and peach #e8a27c on the espresso slab. Headings are Georgia at 400, body, labels and buttons Helvetica; buttons are espresso pills or underlined links, cards and photographs rounded at 14px. Every text pair is measured on the ground it is painted on. Take the base for your theme's colours, or the look's Use my theme chip.

Notes

  • Core blocks only: group, heading, paragraph, buttons, button. No plugin, nothing to keep updated.
  • The root group sets headings and links to currentColor, so every heading, paragraph and link inherits the group's text colour in any theme; only role-bearing text (labels, rules, plates) carries its own chain.
