What you change first

  1. The featured question. Replace the left card with your product's most critical value question.
  2. The secondary tiles. Four concise answers to standard operational questions.
  3. The header. Tailor the section title and intro paragraph to your page context.

The signature moment

Asymmetry across a featured bento card and compact question tiles

The section organizes inquiries into an asymmetric visual hierarchy. Rather than treating every question identically, it gives prominence to the #1 primary workflow question inside a large 52% basis card on the left with expanded explanations and bullet takeaways. The right 48% column balances this weight with four compact, individually bordered question cards.

Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast

What it inherits from your theme

  • Typeface. Heading and body font families from your theme.
  • Palette. Built strictly on base and contrast token fallback chains.
  • Spacing presets. Standard spacing tokens for gutters and margins.
  • Corner styles. Supports global corner radius via theme controls (finish.corners).

What it decides for itself

  • The asymmetric bento distribution. 52% featured card beside 48% compact card stack.
  • Card hierarchy. Large featured card with bullet list beside 4 compact question tiles.
  • Card padding. Responsive clamps tailored for dense card reading.

Contrast

All headings, text, and structural card borders pass WCAG 2.1 AA requirements across standard and inverted themes.

Technical notesBlock mechanics, responsive behaviour and constraints

Mechanics worth knowing

  • Asymmetric two-column split. Uses core/columns with 52% and 48% basis widths. On desktop, the featured card and the 4-card stack balance naturally; on mobile viewports below 782px, the cards stack cleanly in logical reading order.
  • Card borders in currentColor. All card containers use border-width: 1px and border-color: currentColor, ensuring crisp separation across themes without stated palette dependencies.
  • Responsive card padding. Internal padding uses responsive clamp values so boxes maintain visual balance across tablet and desktop scales.

The markup

14KB of core-block markup, 6 blocks (column, columns, group, heading, paragraph, separator), and nothing else: paste it into the block editor and it becomes editable blocks wearing your theme.
