Research methodology section divider with body copy

Summary

The chapter divider for research methodology, doubling as a content page: a section title and three columns of body copy on the left and center, with a corner arc of red-to-blue gradient lines anchoring the lower right.

Visual description

White background. A blue "05" section number sits top-left above a "Research methodology" heading. The body runs in three justified columns: the first opens at a slightly larger size, the second and third in standard body copy, all explaining the benchmark instrument and confidentiality approach. The lower-right corner holds a quarter of the deck's line-art motif: many concentric fine arcs sweeping up from the bottom-right corner, color-graded from blue at the lower left to red at the upper right, with two small red dots on the form. The arc bleeds off the right and bottom edges. A minimal navigation footer runs along the bottom.

Key takeaway

A hybrid divider that also delivers content: the section title plus the corner graphic mark a new chapter while three columns of copy get the methodology going immediately, so no slide is spent on a title alone. Tucking the line motif into one corner keeps it present but subordinate to the text.

Reuse notes

Useful when a section opener also needs to carry prose and you want to avoid a content-free title slide. Anchoring the gradient arc in a corner (rather than filling half the slide) is the right call when text dominates. Keep the section number, heading style, and red-dot accent consistent with the other dividers so the chapter breaks read as a set.
