How this works

The layout is deliberately flat and typographic: a short gradient header strip, then a clean white body with strong hierarchy between name, headline and location. The connection cluster overlaps small circles with negative margin-left and white ring borders, a compact way to imply a network.

Interaction is restrained — the whole card deepens its box-shadow on hover, and the pill buttons shift background on hover/active — matching the calm, professional tone. Everything relies on layered shadows and border-radius rather than heavy effects, so it stays lightweight and legible.

Make it yours

  • Rebrand the header by editing the linear-gradient on .pc-10__pfp.
  • Adjust the hover elevation via the two box-shadow layers on .pc-10__card:hover.
  • Change button shape with the border-radius:22px on the pill buttons.
  • Add or remove connection avatars by editing the .pc-10__conn span list and their overlap margin.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Overlapping avatars need matching ring borders in the card background colour or the overlap looks muddy.
  • Keep the header strip short — a tall gradient fights the flat, text-first aesthetic.
  • High-contrast light cards can glare in dark rooms; consider a prefers-color-scheme variant.
