dense-modules
High-density modular layout with 6-7 typed information modules packed with concrete data.
Structure
- 6-7 distinct modules per image, each serving a specific information function
- Every module contains concrete data: brand names, numbers, percentages, parameters
- Minimal whitespace—compact spacing prioritized over breathing room
- Smaller text acceptable to maximize information density
- Each module identified by coordinate label or section marker (e.g., MOD-1, SEC-A)
Module Archetypes
| Module |
Purpose |

Focus |
Visual Emphasis |
| Coordinate-labeled |
Precision and systematicity |
Each module has alphanumeric coordinate (A-01, B-05, C-12), ruler/axis markers |
| Grid-cell |
Order and structure |
Modules in strict rectangular cells divided by thick lines, Swiss grid feel |
| Free-flowing |
Organic density |
Magazine-style layout with dotted frames, varying module sizes, connected by arrows |
Best For
- Product selection guides and buying guides
- Multi-dimensional comparison content
- Data-rich educational materials
- "Avoid pitfalls" / "complete guide" formats
- Content targeting platforms like Xiaohongshu with high-density visual requirements
Visual Elements
- Module boundary markers (thick lines, dotted frames, or coordinate grids)
- Quality indicators per module (emoji faces, checkmarks, crosses, crowns)
- Data callout boxes with highlighted numbers
- Comparison arrows and progression indicators
- Warning/alert visual markers for pitfall modules
- Metadata in corners (page numbers, timestamps, small barcodes)
Text Placement
- Main title at top, prominent and impactful
- Subtitle with module count ("X大维度全面解析...")
- Module headers inside colored badges or labeled frames
- Body text compact, multiple columns within modules
- Numbers highlighted with accent colors, slightly larger than body text
- Every corner should contain useful information or metadata
- No decorative-only empty space
- Text size may be reduced to fit more content—information over font size
- Each module must have specific data points, not generic descriptions
- Balance between density and readability: dense but organized
