A graphic-device page presenting all four ready-made gradient backgrounds (bright, bright-hawk, dark, dark-hawk) in a labelled two-by-two grid.

Summary

The gradient asset suite: a blue copy panel on when to use each, beside a labelled two-by-two grid showing Bright Gradient, Bright Hawk Gradient, Dark Gradient and Dark Hawk Gradient.

Visual description

A tall cobalt panel on the left carries a white "Gradient asset suite" heading and copy on choosing assets by audience, vibrant gradients for bold high-impact hero areas and tonal editorial backgrounds for restraint. The right side is a two-by-two grid of large rectangles, each titled: "Bright Gradient" (a soft yellow-mint-blue wash), "Bright Hawk Gradient" (that wash with the multi-color hawk), "Dark Gradient" (a flat blue field), and "Dark Hawk Gradient" (a blue field with the tonal hawk). Together they summarise the four ready-made backgrounds defined on the prior pages.

Key takeaway

Collecting all derived background assets onto one contact-sheet page with consistent labels, so designers can pick from a known set rather than building gradients themselves. It turns the device into a reusable library.

Reuse notes

A useful summary page whenever a brand ships a fixed set of background assets. The labelled grid doubles as a quick-pick reference and as documentation of exactly which gradients are sanctioned.
