Hero grid 1-row guide overlays

Summary

A layout-spec slide: a single row of four near-square black hero tiles on white, each wrapped in a bright cyan grid box and labelled "3X4", demonstrating the one-row hero grid system.

Visual description

White page with the standard running header (BRAND DEFINING EMPOWER, DESIGN GUIDELINES, the Nike swoosh, LAYOUT APPLICATIONS, 2021 CREATIVE GUIDELINES) and footer (copyright left). A left-aligned all-caps label reads "HERO GRID APPLICATION / FOUNDATION 1 ROW GUIDES". Below sits a row of four black 3x4 tiles, each outlined in a thick cyan bounding box. The tiles alternate two treatments: an oversized white serif "New" lockup with small swoosh and "PLAY NEW" corner tags, and a magenta X-crossed placeholder tile holding a smaller centered "New XXX." or "Play New" lockup. The cyan outlines call out the grid module rather than final art.

Key takeaway

Showing a layout system as bright-keyline bounding boxes over real and placeholder content, so the grid rules read instantly without a separate wireframe. The alternating "finished art" vs "X-crossed placeholder" tiles teach the pattern and its slots at once.

Reuse notes

A clean reference for documenting a poster or hero grid module inside a brand or design guideline deck. The cyan keyline-over-black device is reusable for any spec slide that needs to show structure on top of dark creative. Pair with the matching example slide that shows the same grid filled with real imagery.
