About the Clay template
Clay paints the whole page a warm grey-beige and sets the name in large spaced capitals in the accent, the first name and the surname each on a white block of its own, with the job title on a third block beneath and a round portrait in the top right corner. A thick rule in the accent runs the full width above and below the contact details, which read as two plain columns beside a heading of their own. The profile follows as a plain paragraph with no heading, closed by a third rule, and under it the education and any section the writer adds sit three across on one row, each under its own heading, then the rules divide the work history and the references down the rest of the page. Every heading is spaced capitals in the accent on a white block that fits the label, a section the writer adds included. A role reads as its dates in bold over the title, employer and city divided by bars; a degree as the school and city in bold over the award, then its coursework. It suits a nurse, a pharmacist, a teacher or an administrator whose page should look warm and settled rather than corporate.
