An asymmetric bento matrix: one expansive double-height marquee cell on the left detailing a primary productivity metric, flanked by two stacked secondary stat cells on the right, all framed in 1px currentColor borders.
The signature moment
Asymmetric bento balance
The layout provides rhythm and visual hierarchy through unequal area distribution. The primary marquee cell occupies 58% of the width, pairing a massive percentage numeral with a subhead and explanatory narrative. The remaining 42% is divided vertically into two secondary metric blocks, giving each finding its exact proportionate weight.
What it inherits from your theme
- Typeface. No font family is stated anywhere.
- Palette. Ground and text resolve to
baseandcontrastchains. - Spacing scale. Margin and padding presets derive from core tokens.
What it decides for itself
- The asymmetric 58/42 bento grid proportions.
- The internal card padding and vertical typography hierarchy.
- The display typographic ramp.
What you change first
- The marquee metric, subhead, and context paragraph.
- The two stacked secondary metrics and labels.
- The methodology footnote.
Why this is not the other stats patterns45 words

Mechanics worth knowing47 words
- Contiguous 1px currentColor borders. Each card is independently outlined in
currentColorwith matching internal padding. - Vertical gap between stacked cards. Managed via
margin-topon the lower card, matching the section column gap. - Constrained footnote. Keeps the research source citation cleanly formatted below the matrix.
The variations35 words
- Night matrix. The entire section inverts to your contrast ground with base text and
currentColorcard borders. - Matrix reversed. Mirrors the columns: two stacked cards on the left, marquee card on the right.
Contrast27 words
All text and figures are contrast on base (or base on contrast in Night matrix). Display figures meet 3:1 criteria; all labels and body copy meet 4.5:1.
Display type24 words
Off the theme's ladder on purpose, because the size is the composition:
- paragraph at clamp(3.5rem, 7vw, 5.5rem)
- paragraph at clamp(2.25rem, 4.5vw, 3.25rem)
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.
