Stays room blocks

Where to stay for guests travelling to an event: a lead card with a photograph spanning two rows beside two smaller cards, each with the place, the distance, a line about it, the price and a Book direct link, and each ending on an inverted stub carrying the code to quote and the date the held rooms go back on sale.

A note for budget rooms follows. Example image included and replaceable in the editor.

What to change first

  1. The code and the date on each stub.
  2. Each stay: the name, the distance, one line, the price and the Book direct link (each points at a placeholder anchor).
  3. The photograph. Select it and choose Replace.

The signature moment

Each stay ends on the code to quote and the date its rooms go back

Every card ends on an inverted stub: "Quote", the booking name set large, and "Held until" a date. The lead card carries a photograph and spans two rows of the grid, with the two smaller cards stacked beside it; each card is a vertical flex that pushes its stub to the foot, so the stubs level with the card edges. A note for budget rooms follows the grid.

Design rationaleComposition, intent and nearest alternatives

Overview

Where to stay, for guests travelling to one event: the hotels with rooms held for them, and on each card the two facts that decide whether they get one, the name to quote and the date the rooms go back on sale. It sits in the listings section beside listing-cards (the number is bigger than the name), services-photo-cards (price is the second headline) and about-suppliers-miles (miles as the figure).

Make it yoursVariations and the edits to make first

What to change first

  1. The code and the date on each stub. Hotels hold rooms against a name or a code until a release date; copy both exactly as the hotel wrote them.
  2. Each stay: the name, the distance, one line, the price and the Book direct link (each points at a placeholder anchor).
  3. The photograph. Select it and choose Replace.
Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast

What it inherits from your theme

  • Typeface. The base states no font family.
  • Palette. Your base ground and contrast text. The cards try role-plate, role-plate-text and a role-rule border; the stubs invert to contrast with base text; all fall back to base and contrast.
  • Buttons. Underlined Book direct links in the text colour.

What it decides for itself

  • The grid. 20rem minimum columns: three across from about 1100px, the lead card taking two columns and two rows; two across on a tablet with the small cards side by side under the lead; one column on a phone, lead first.
  • The heading. On the ladder at x-large: this section is for reading, and the page's display moment belongs to the section above it.

The Vow look

Part of the Vow Pattern Set, a couple's whole wedding website in one design language: wisteria white ground #f7f5fb, a wisteria band #ebe6f3, card white #ffffff and a midnight slab #1f2240; midnight ink, dusk #555a78 for secondary copy, peony #a8365a labels on light grounds and pale peony #f2b8c9 on the slab, wisteria hairlines #d9d3e6. Headings and names are Didot at 400 (Bodoni MT, Hoefler Text, Baskerville, Times New Roman, serif), body, labels and buttons Gill Sans (Seravek, Trebuchet MS, sans-serif). Cards and buttons are square; the primary button is a filled midnight rectangle, the secondary an underlined peony link. Every text pair is measured on the ground it is painted on. Take the base for your theme's colours, or the look's Use my theme chip.

The copied markup includes a WordPress Photo Directory example photograph. The public image URL keeps the example visible after pasting.
