Card Deck

Description

The card deck arranges a series of content cards into a neat, visually aligned grid presentation — ideal for news articles, resources, or featured links.

Use when you want to feature a collection of pages on your site. For example, you may want to direct people to up to 4 of the most important resources or pages on your site and indicate what the user can expect to find on those pages.

Dos and Don’ts

Do

  • Make cards actionable. Since cards are used as a summary of more detailed information, any individual card should link out to that information.
  • Make sure images are properly sized. Cards often change size depending on the device. Make sure you use an image that works well on any device at any size.
  • Use with feeds (news)

Don’t

  • Don’t use with large amounts of text
  • Include non-redundant content. Don’t repeat images or content common to all or most cards in a collection. Repeated information (like using the same image for each card in a collection) makes it more difficult to distinguish cards from one another.
  • Avoid putting cards that have images in groups with cards that don’t have images.

Anatomy
