Three upright architectural pillars in 1px currentColor outline frames: each pillar carries a tracked index eyebrow, a figure at display scale, a dividing hairline, a bold metric label, and a full paragraph of empirical context.
The signature moment
Monolithic columnar architecture
Each stat is given its own self-contained architectural pillar. Rather than simple floating numbers, the figures sit inside balanced 1px currentColor frames that structure the data into an orderly sequence of indexed findings (01, 02, 03). An internal hairline cleanly bisects the raw numerical proof from the practical real-world outcome.
What it inherits from your theme
- Typeface. No font family is stated anywhere.
- Palette. Ground and text resolve to
baseandcontrastchains. - Spacing scale. Uses core spacing presets for margins and padding.
What it decides for itself
- The three-pillar layout and generous internal card padding.
- The display typographic ramp, flooring safely on mobile viewports.
- The internal vertical rhythm inside each card.
What you change first
- The three numerical findings and their index labels.
- The metric titles and explanatory paragraphs.
- The section heading and methodology note.

Mechanics worth knowing72 words
- Uniform outline borders use currentColor. The 1px frame on each pillar writes
border-color:currentColor;border-width:1pxand thehas-border-colorclass, guaranteeing it renders across light, dark, and custom themes. - Internal divider is a border-top on an inner group. This ensures the rule runs flush across the card without relying on
core/separatormargin quirks. - The footnote is held to 32rem. Uses a constrained group with
justifyContent: "left"to keep the methodology line readable.
The variations27 words
- Night pillars. The entire section inverts to your contrast ground with base text. The three pillar frames and inner hairlines follow the text colour in
currentColor.
Contrast27 words
All text and figures are contrast on base (or base on contrast in Night pillars). Display figures meet 3:1 criteria; all labels and body copy meet 4.5:1.
Display type18 words
Off the theme's ladder on purpose, because the size is the composition:

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.
