A headline that carries
the whole argument


One paragraph of lead copy. Keep it to three lines: this is read across a room, and anything longer gets skimmed rather than heard. If it needs more, it needs another slide.

Headline
goes here

  • A bulleted point, written as a full sentence so it can be read aloud.
  • The marker is the Colorado C, drawn in CSS — it carries the brand without an icon font.
  • Four to six points. More than that and the room stops reading.
  • Body copy never goes below 2.0cqh. Cut words instead of shrinking type.

Split layout

Content on one side, photography on the other. --split sets the ratio; .l-split-40, -60 and -33 are the presets.

Three shifts, one at a time

01

Shoulder season

Fall now out-books spring by a factor of two.

02

Shorter windows

The median booking window has closed to eighteen days.

03

New origins

Texas and the Southeast are growing faster than the coasts.

All three point the same way: the season is longer and the decision is later.
