The signature moment
Three staggered photograph columns
The composition survives without motion or an authored palette. The base takes the host theme's ground, ink and typeface. The Styled variation carries the Designed kind's palette and heading face. All photographs are native image blocks, so buyers can replace them.

Overview
Six mixed-proportion photographs form three staggered columns under a generous editorial introduction. Each picture carries a caption in a still, readable photo wall.

Technical notesBlock mechanics, responsive behaviour and constraints
At narrow widths
Core columns stack into a readable sequence. Captions stay beside their own photographs, and no image or label depends on animation.

Questions
Collected in colour: common questions
Does Collected in colour need a plugin?
No. It is built only from core WordPress blocks (column, columns, group, heading, image and paragraph), so it pastes into the block editor with nothing to install.
Will Collected in colour match my theme?
Choose by variation. Collected in colour takes your theme’s palette; Cream And Burgundy brings its own colours.
How many variations does Collected in colour have?
2: Collected in colour and Cream And Burgundy. Each is its own markup; choose one in the toolbar above the preview before you copy.
Can I use my own images?
Yes. Sample images stay in the copied blocks. Replace them in WordPress; pasting does not upload them to your Media Library.
Is Collected in colour free?
It is included with a subscription, with every Core Pattern and variation. 50 Core Patterns are free to copy without one.
The markup
Core block markup and nothing else. Copy it, then paste it straight into the block editor: WordPress reads the delimiters and rebuilds the blocks.
