WILL'S LAYOUT CLASSES (USE THESE FIRST)
Will Roberts set up CSS classes on the staging site that handle layout, spacing, and responsive behavior automatically. Use these instead of manual Avada builder settings wherever possible.
| Layout Type |
How to Apply |
What It Does |
| Hero |
Add ID hero to the container |
Full-width hero with overlay, responsive height, centered content |
| Intro/Subheading |
Add class introheader |
Styled heading typography for section intros |
| Two-Column |
Add class two-column |
Split layout, image stacks above text on mobile |
| Mosaic |
Add class mosaic |
Text + 4-image grid, auto-cropped aspect ratios |
You do NOT need to manually set: padding values, column widths, mobile breakpoints, or min-heights for sections using these classes. The CSS handles it all. Just add the class/ID, drop in your content and images.
Only set manual Avada values for: colors, background images, button styles, icon choices, and any custom sections not covered by the four classes above.
Staging reference: integrapoo1stg.wpenginepowered.com/new-layouts/ — shows all four layout types in action.

STITCH DESIGN IMPROVEMENTS (from stitch-live/resources-hub.html)
The Stitch prototype adds one key section and a layout refinement:
-
Featured Resource Section (between card grid and closing CTA): An asymmetric bento-style layout highlighting "The Complete Guide to Automatic Pool Covers" — the main pillar page. Left side has a "Featured Resource" tag, H2, descriptive paragraph about the 50-page guide, and a "Download the Full Guide" button. Right side shows a tilted document preview mockup. This is a strong content marketing play — elevates the most important resource above the grid cards. Recommended.
-
Card Grid Layout: The stitch uses a 6-card grid (3x2) instead of the build guide's 5-card asymmetric layout. The 6th card is the Complete Guide itself, plus a Gallery card and FAQ card. Consider whether 5 or 6 cards works better — the 6-card grid is visually cleaner than 3+2.
