Split Category Grid

About this block

Split Category Grid borrows the magazine layout, a sticky editorial column introducing the category, four bags, eleven years, one canvas, beside a two column product grid where each card carries a choosing note. The intro explains the range's editing rule, a bag is added only when a real job has no answer, the musette took four years.

Products are one array, the intro column is prose. The sticky positioning keeps the thesis visible while the grid scrolls.

When to use

Reach for this block as a category page for a short, heavily edited range where the curation is part of the sell. Past about eight products the editorial framing stops being credible, use a standard grid.

A natural flow around it on an Ecommerce Pro page:

Before

• Mosaic hero

After

• Comparison table

What you can display

One strong use is the edited category. Other split grids:

• Material story. The column tells the canvas, the grid sells what it becomes.
• Maker column. The workshop introduction beside its output.
• Guide plus grid. Buying advice on the left, the candidates on the right.

Tip: the notes under each are how we would choose reframes product cards as advice, the store taking a position instead of listing inventory.
