Bridge Design System
Bridge is a plain, tidy business template. Everything is neutral: a light grey hero band, white cards and sections, black Inter 600 headlines and dark grey body copy. The home page works as a showcase: a centred hero, four small feature cards, then a grid of framed page previews, each labelled with a grey chip.
Four signatures make it recognisable:
- Three-part header. Social squares and a Search field on the left, the Bridge wordmark centred, and a long hamburger line plus MENU in 5px-tracked capitals on the right. A very soft shadow (0 16px 25px black at 3%) sits under it.
- Grey hero band with white cards. The hero is a #E0E0E0 band with centred text and buttons, and the white 3px-radius feature cards sit on the same grey.
- Framed previews with chips. Screenshots of the template's pages at about 1.55:1, with a 1px #EDEDED frame and 3px radius, each with a centred grey chip (Home 1, Work 3) below.
- Eyebrow / title / subtitle stacks. Each preview section opens with a centred Choose your favorite eyebrow in grey, a 46px title and a 23px light subtitle.
Bridge is a light design with one near-black closing band.
