How can I recreate a webpage layout in Webflow that includes a 3 x 3 grid of images with the original aspect ratio, along with a column on the right containing links and contact information?

TL;DR
  • Create a grid layout with images using a Div Block set to 3 columns and 3 rows grid in Webflow, ensuring images use Object-fit: cover.
  • Add a Flexbox section to align a right-hand column for links and contact information beside the grid.

To recreate a webpage layout in Webflow that features a 3 x 3 grid of images maintaining their original aspect ratio and a right-hand column for links and contact information, follow these steps:

1. Set Up the Basic Structure

  • Open Webflow and start a new project or open an existing one where you want to add this layout.
  • Add a Section to house your grid and the right-hand column. This keeps everything contained and organized.

2. Create the Image Grid

  • Add a Div Block inside the section. This will serve as your grid container.
  • Set the Display of the Div Block to Grid.
  • Define the Grid Layout to 3 columns and 3 rows to match your requirements.
  • Add Image Elements into each grid cell. Ensure each image is inside a separate grid cell.

3. Maintain Image Aspect Ratio

  • Select Each Image and go to the Style settings.
  • Set the Width and Height to 100%, with Object-fit set to cover. This ensures images maintain their aspect ratios and cover the entire cell.

4. Add the Right Column

  • Add Another Div Block next to the grid container within the section.
  • Set the Flexbox Property of the section to Horizontal to align the grid and the column side by side.
  • Style the Div Block for your links and contact info to your desired width.

5. Populate the Right Column

  • Add Text Blocks for your contact information.
  • Add Link Blocks for any links, and set them to the desired URLs.
  • Use appropriate headings and paragraphs as needed for visual hierarchy.

Summary

To create a 3 x 3 image grid that maintains the original aspect ratio in Webflow alongside a right-hand column for links and contact information, create a grid layout with images using Object-fit: cover and set up a Flexbox section for proper alignment. This ensures both aesthetic appeal and functionality in your layout.
