About the Basalt template

Basalt runs a charcoal column full bleed down the left of the page, opens it with a round portrait and fills it with the profile, the links, the languages in one dotted row and any section the writer adds themselves. The white column beside it sets the name in two heavy lines with the contact details in dark discs level with it, then hangs the work history and the education on a vertical rail: employer, city and dates in a label column left of the line, a dot on it, and the role with its bullets beside it. Skills read as two columns of labelled bars and the interests as one dotted row beneath them. Nothing on the page is coloured except the rail, the dots, the heading rules and the bars under the skills, which is what keeps a dense two-page career readable.

How it is built

• A charcoal column down the left, full bleed top to bottom, opened by a round portrait
• The name in two heavy lines of capitals with the contact details in dark discs beside it
• Work history and education hung on a vertical rail with a dot at each entry
• Employer, city and dates set in a label column left of the rail rather than inside the entry
• Skills as two columns of labelled proficiency bars, with the languages and the interests each as one dotted row of names
• Headings underlined in the white column and opened by a rule above in the charcoal one
