Business / Media / Power
A premium front page for operators, deals, and the record.
Lead file / Investigations Desk
The front page now gives the dominant story a real claim on the page: large serif headline, compact metadata, clear supporting links, and original editorial art that keeps the presentation fast even when photography is sparse.
Desk report
The desk leads with one dominant story, then folds secondary reads into a compact adjacent stack so the section reads like a real front page.
Original cover art keeps the desk visually coherent without sliding into glossy magazine treatment.
Secondary pieces stay visible without flattening the desk hierarchy.
Markets and money
This desk gets one clear lead and a right-hand cluster of quick reads, closer to a broadsheet report than an app feed.
Investigations archive
Essay and criticism
A lighter desk in tone, but still run on the same editorial discipline.
Compact deks keep the section readable without turning it into a glossy sidebar.
The page closes the main column with a lighter register, not a different design language.
