Designer note: why Focused exists
Focused uses a narrower content column than the other contemporary singles — about 65% of the page width. The constraint forces brevity. I use it for executives whose audience has reading fatigue and where one tight page outperforms two longer ones.
Bullets that read well in Focused
These are the kind of lines this template's spacing and typography were built for. The note under each explains why the rhythm fits.
CEO, [Company] (2019-2024). $42M to $310M ARR. Exit via strategic acquisition.
Narrow column forces the executive summary into three clauses. The constraint is the design.

Questions about the Focused template
Is 65% width too narrow to read comfortably?
On the page, no — it falls within recommended measure for body type. The narrow feel is intentional and works for skim contexts.
