Content with Header

This is where content should be placed. This element is primarily designed for text or text-heavy content presentation. It offers flexibility in layout by allowing content to be either boxed (see below), providing a distinct boundary around the text, or unboxed for a more fluid integration with the surrounding page elements. Additionally, users have the option to utilize just the content box for neatly stacking text under another element or section, or to employ only the header section to provide clear titles for various sections of the page.

Section Divider

This element is a visual tool used to separate content on a webpage. It's ideal for delineating different sections or topics, enhancing organization and readability. This element offers flexibility in design, allowing for various styles such as horizontal lines, shapes, or patterns. It can be seamlessly integrated into the page layout, providing clear boundaries without overpowering surrounding elements. Users can customize the divider to suit their needs, ensuring a cohesive and visually appealing browsing experience.

Card Grids

'None' Variation Card #1

This is where content should be placed. Card grids offer a dynamic way to display content, with several variations that can accommodate 1, 2, 3, or 4 cards across the page. These cards can be enhanced with images or pre-determined background colors, adding a visually engaging element to the website. Designed to hold small to medium amounts of text, card grids are ideal for organizing and presenting grouped information like course modules, club offerings, or interesting facts. This layout structure allows for both functional categorization and an aesthetically pleasing presentation, making information easily accessible and engaging for users. Cards can also be enhanced with buttons, providing a practical navigation element that links to other sections on Bentley's page, different places on the current page, external websites, or directly to various types of documents, including Word documents and PDFs. Please see below to explore the different types of cards available in the card grid, each designed to meet specific content presentation needs while maintaining a cohesive look and feel.
