Type the day, weekday and month on each tile. - The events. Title, time and price; duplicate a tile to add one. - The links. #book. 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. Theme handoff ## What comes from where ### From your theme - Typeface. - Palette. - Links. ### Set by this pattern - The numeral. - The titles.

Design rationaleComposition, intent and nearest alternatives ### 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. ### 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. Make it yoursVariations and the edits to make first ### What to change first - The dates. Type the day, weekday and month on each tile. - The events. Title, time and price; duplicate a tile to add one. - The links. #book. 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. Technical notesBlock mechanics, responsive behaviour and constraints ### 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.

The name, the biography and the two neighbours are dynamic core blocks, so they are the post's own and the preview here is sample data; the portrait is an ordinary image block you swap for your author's own. The previous and next links only resolve on a single post template, which is where this pattern belongs. (https://patternpaste.com/pattern/article-footer.html)Hero Hero aperture An opening section on your theme's own paper: a tracked line, a display headline, one short paragraph on a reading measure, and then a picture that stops short of the edge on every side. The signature is the margin: the image is a window cut in the page rather than a band across it, and the paper around it is what you notice. A small opaque plate in the picture's bottom-right corner carries the caption, so no type ever sits on the photograph. The still-image version includes an example photograph; select your own clip for the video version. States no colour and no font of its own. (https://patternpaste.com/pattern/hero-aperture.html)Call to action CTA band A full-bleed closing band that inverts the page: a contrast ground carrying base text, one centred statement, one action. States no colour and no font of its own. (https://patternpaste.com/pattern/cta-band.html) #### Before you paste Requires a block theme on WordPress 7.0.
