About the Petal template
Petal lays a soft blush band across the head of a white page, set in from every edge so white frames it. In the band the name runs in large heavy spaced capitals over the job title in small, widely spaced ones, then a single line of the phone, the email and the city behind small icons, split by upright bars and ruled above and below. A round photo in a thin dark ring sits at the right of the band, and the profile runs across its foot beside a large opening quotation mark, with no heading. Under the band a thin grey rule splits the page into a wide column and a narrow one. The narrow column opens on the contact details again, each beside its icon in a small dark disc, then the degrees and the skills, a short rule above each section. A role reads its dates, its title in small spaced capitals and the employer and city in grey italics, one line each, then a paragraph and its bullets. Every heading, a section the writer adds included, is its label in bold spaced capitals. It suits a web, UX or visual designer who wants a calm page with one warm colour.
