Bento Notícias Curadas
Personalized and organized Bento Style landing page for a curated news platform. Ideal for landing pages, modern websites. AI-ready template.
Use case: Landing pages, Modern websites
Historical Context
Flipboard changed everything in 2010. Before it, news aggregation meant reverse-chronological lists — dense, undifferentiated, exhausting. Their magazine-style card layout proved something radical: editorial hierarchy could be algorithmic. A lead story gets the full-width hero. Supporting pieces tile beneath in smaller cards. The grid itself communicates importance without a single editor writing a headline slug. Apple News refined this further, introducing the bento approach where card sizes aren't just aesthetic choices — they're semantic. A two-column span means "this matters more." A thumbnail card means "here's context if you want it." The density varies by section: politics gets breathing room, sports packs tight with scores and updates. Google Discover took it mobile-native, proving that a single-column bento with varied card heights could feel curated even when fully automated. What makes bento grids work for news specifically is the tension between uniformity and surprise. The grid provides predictability — you know where to look. The varied card sizes provide editorial voice — someone (or something) decided this story deserves more space. That tension is the entire design problem.
When to Use
When your content has natural hierarchy but unpredictable volume. Bento grids for news work when you need to surface 15-40 items without making them feel like a database dump. They're ideal when stories vary in importance, when you mix media types (video, longform, quick hits), and when users scan rather than read sequentially. Skip this pattern if every item has equal weight — use a masonry or uniform grid instead. The bento earns its complexity only when editorial judgment (human or algorithmic) assigns meaning to size.
Design Principles
- Size encodes hierarchy — a card's dimensions are its headline before the headline. Never make all cards equal unless you genuinely mean equal importance.
- Typography does the heavy lifting across card sizes. Your largest card needs display type that rewards attention; your smallest needs a tight, scannable style. Design at least three distinct typographic treatments, not one scaled up and down.
- Whitespace between cards is editorial punctuation. Tight gutters say 'these stories are related.' A gap says 'new section.' Don't uniform-gutter your way into visual monotony.
- Content density should shift by context — breaking news sections pack tighter, feature sections breathe. A single rigid density across all content types flattens the reading experience.
- The grid must degrade gracefully when content is missing or sparse. Design the 4-item state and the 40-item state. If your layout only looks good at exactly 12 cards, it's a poster, not a system.

Strictly follow the defined visual style. 2. Use high-quality inline SVG icons (Heroicons or Lucide style) — NEVER use emojis as icons. 3. Add `cursor-pointer` and smooth `hover` states (transition-all) on all interactive elements. 4. Required Page Structure: - Navbar (Logo + Links + CTA) - Hero Section (Impactful Headline + Subtitle + 2 buttons + 3D/Abstract visual element via CSS) - Features (3 cards with icons) - Testimonials (3 cards) - Pricing (3 tiers, highlight the middle one) - Final CTA - Full Footer with social links, privacy policy, terms of use, contact and SEO links. 5. All text content must be in English. 6. The visual must be CLEARLY distinct — do not create a "default Bootstrap" design. Force the use of the provided design system variables. 7. Use `<style>` tags in the head for custom classes (especially for complex backdrop-filter effects and animations) that Tailwind CDN doesn't cover. 8. Full Responsiveness: Layout must adapt perfectly to Mobile, Tablet and Desktop (vertical stack on mobile). 9. Include basic SEO, Viewport and Open Graph meta tags in `<head>`. 10. Footer must contain: Copyright 2026, Secondary navigation links and Social media icons. 11. Make the creative decisions needed to deliver the complete, functional result now.
