About the Margin template
Margin is built on warm paper, graphite text and a carmine accent. The first name is set in a large serif face with the italic surname on the same line, and the job title in widely spaced carmine capitals; a graphite rule runs below the header. The rectangular photo has a carmine square at its lower corner, and beside it are a numbered summary in a serif face, contact details and the portfolio address. The narrow column starts right below the photo and contains skills, languages, additional information and interests, the wide column experience and education. The layout suits curators, art historians, gallery and museum staff, cultural managers and publishers.
Two colours can be changed: red (section numbers, the square at the photo and captions) and the rule below the header. The photo is on by default, skills and languages appear as lists, and the section numbering is recalculated when any section is hidden. Margin is the choice over Cross Section for the name on a single line and the summary beside the photo, and over Fashion for the carmine accent and numbered sections. Full access is required.
