Venue spaces capacity

Three hireable spaces for an events venue, each a photograph, the room name, its standing and seated capacity set as two display figures between rules, a line of what is included and an Enquire button on the foot.

The figures line up across the cards so a planner compares rooms at a glance. Example images are included and can be replaced in the editor. States no colour and no font of its own.

What to change first

The room names, the two capacities for each, the "included" lines, the photographs and the #enquire- links.

The signature moment

The capacities are the headline, the name is the caption

Under every photograph the standing and seated numbers are the largest type on the card, side by side between two rules, and they line up across the row. An event planner's first question is "will we fit", so the answer is read before the room's name. The figures are a bare clamp(2.5rem, 3.6vw, 3.5rem), off the type ladder on purpose because their size is the composition; the room names sit on the large rung below them in weight. The mark survives colourlessness because it is made of scale and rule: two numbers in a two-column grid, a currentColor rule above and below and a vertical rule between them.

Theme handoff

What comes from where

From your theme

  • The ground is base and every line of type is contrast, each a two-rung chain. Text is at 4.5:1 or better in the stock themes, and the figures are display type.
  • The rules are currentColor, so they follow your text.
  • The "Standing" and "Seated" labels and the head label start on role-label, falling through to contrast.
  • The Enquire buttons state no colour, so your theme's button paints them; they state their padding so the target holds in any theme.
  • The heading is on the x-large rung, the room names on large, body copy on medium. The typeface is your theme's.

Set by this pattern

  • The rooms are a columns block, three across from 782px and stacked below. Each column is a vertical flex stack with its content pushed apart, so the Enquire buttons line up along the foot of the row whatever the length of each "included" line.
  • The figures are a two-column grid with a fixed column count, so standing and seated stay side by side down to 390px.
  • Example photographs are included and are meant to be replaced in the editor.

Design rationaleComposition, intent and nearest alternatives

Overview

The hireable rooms of an events venue, a hotel or a wedding barn. A tracked label and a heading hold the left of the head, one line on what every room includes the right. Below them three cards, one per room: a 4:3 photograph, the room's name, its standing and seated capacities as two display figures between rules, a line of what is included, and an Enquire button on the foot.

Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast

What it inherits from your theme

  • The ground is base and every line of type is contrast, each a two-rung chain. Text is at 4.5:1 or better in the stock themes, and the figures are display type.
  • The rules are currentColor, so they follow your text.
  • The "Standing" and "Seated" labels and the head label start on role-label, falling through to contrast.
  • The Enquire buttons state no colour, so your theme's button paints them; they state their padding so the target holds in any theme.
  • The heading is on the x-large rung, the room names on large, body copy on medium. The typeface is your theme's.

What it decides for itself

  • The rooms are a columns block, three across from 782px and stacked below. Each column is a vertical flex stack with its content pushed apart, so the Enquire buttons line up along the foot of the row whatever the length of each "included" line.
  • The figures are a two-column grid with a fixed column count, so standing and seated stay side by side down to 390px.
  • Example photographs are included and are meant to be replaced in the editor.

The Styled look

stone-and-damson states a warm stone ground #f1ebe2, plum-black ink and rules #231a20, warm white card plates #fbf8f3 and damson #5e2b4c for the figures and the square Enquire buttons, whose warm white uppercase labels read at over 10:1. The heading, room names and figures are Palatino at weight 400 over a Helvetica body at 400. It is for a hotel, a harbourside venue or a wedding barn that wants to look quietly expensive.

Questions

Venue spaces capacity: common questions

Does Venue spaces capacity need a plugin?

No. It is built only from core WordPress blocks (button, buttons, column, columns, group, heading, image and paragraph), so it pastes into the block editor with nothing to install.

Will Venue spaces capacity match my theme?

Choose by variation. Three rooms takes your theme’s palette; Stone and damson brings its own colours.

How many variations does Venue spaces capacity have?

2: Three rooms and Stone and damson. 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 Venue spaces capacity free?

It is included with a subscription, with every Core Pattern and variation. 56 Core Patterns are free to copy without one.
