Call to action options
There are a few different design options for a call to action based on what is being linked to.
Standard CTA
The standard CTA is used for most call to action links. This includes a title and an optional summary.


Two standard CTA
Sometimes you will have two equally important call to action links. These use medium cards, side by side.

Image CTA
We have a CTA with image option. Use this if there is a need to feature this CTA more prominently or there is a branded image requirement. Always have the image on the right hand size of the card.

Featured CTA
This CTA is generally used when this news article or case study is part of a publication. The featured CTA links back to this publication and makes it clear that this news article is part of a broader product.
