Stacked Grid Email Layout

Use this layout when you want content to stack vertically on mobile, then display side-by-side on wider screens—ideal for product features, image/text pairs, or content blocks.


✅ Why Use It?

  • Mobile-first: stacks naturally for smaller screens
  • Easy to adapt: becomes two-column on desktop with media queries
  • Works in most major email clients with minimal quirks

💡 Best Practices

  • Keep column content under ~300–350px for readability
  • Always use inline styles for padding, alignment, and font
  • Use display:inline-block and fixed widths to simulate columns
  • Use a media query to break columns into side-by-side layout on larger screens
