About the Denim template
Denim runs a wide column of the accent down the left of the page with everything on it in white. It opens on the name in bold, set as if highlighted on a paler wash of the same colour, and the job title on the same highlight beneath it, with each line of a title that wraps boxed on its own. A round portrait ringed in a faint white follows, then the contact details beside small white icons, then the profile set justified, the languages as a name with a row of five dots ranged against the right, and the awards as a bold line over a plain one. Every section on either column, one the writer adds included, opens on a band the full width of the column carrying the section’s icon and its label in bold capitals centred together: a slightly paler wash of the accent in white on the navy side, a pale grey in dark type on the white side. A role reads as the employer in bold over the job title, then the dates and city divided by a bar, then bullets, and a degree is the same three lines with the degree in bold over the school. It suits a consultant, sales or finance professional who wants a photograph and a page that reads as composed without a second colour.
