A page demonstrating the document-icon mask, with two large examples placing a masked photo over an edge-to-edge underwater photo and over a teal-to-magenta gradient.

Summary

A containers page focused on the center document-icon mask, showing two large side-by-side examples: a masked portrait over a full-bleed underwater photo, and a masked portrait over a teal-to-magenta gradient.

Visual description

White page, standard header. The left column holds the title "Containers", two intro paragraphs, a bold "Photo masking guidance:" subhead and two bold-lead bullets ("Mind the focal point", "A little goes a long way"). The right two-thirds splits into two large rounded panels. The left panel has an edge-to-edge underwater image in teal-blue with a smaller rounded document-mask photo of a person floated on top. The right panel runs a vivid teal-to-coral-to-magenta gradient with a rounded document-mask portrait of a man with a tablet floated over it. The two examples sit flush as a matched pair.

Key takeaway

Floating a small document-masked photo over an edge-to-edge image or a saturated gradient, so the container reads as a focal frame against a rich backdrop. Showing exactly two parallel examples (photo backdrop vs gradient backdrop) makes the rule concrete without clutter.

Reuse notes

Useful for any brand system that masks imagery into a signature shape and needs to demonstrate it on both photographic and color backgrounds. The gradient backdrop is striking but loud; reserve it for hero moments as the copy advises. Needs strong photography to survive being shrunk into the mask.
