## Variations (2)

### Cross currents (the default)

Identical markup in every theme.

### Indigo And Seaglass

This variation states its own colours and states its own type: identical in every theme.

The #161a44 ground and #f5f1df ink reproduce the Designed gallery palette, with the original heading face.

## The signature moment: two offset photographic currents

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. The moving gallery becomes a still composition, with every photograph visible.

## At narrow widths

Core columns stack into a readable sequence. Captions stay beside their own photographs, and no image or label depends on animation.
