What defines this layout

  • Sans-serif typeface
  • Two columns with a tinted rail
  • Includes an avatar or photo
  • Headings on a tinted bar
  • Dates right-aligned against each role

Every one of these is a setting, not a constraint — accent colour, font, size, spacing and page margins stay yours under Customize, and switching template later re-renders what you’ve written rather than starting it over.

Using Sable as a CV

Sable carries a photo, which is what a continental European CV expects alongside the personal details a British one leaves out. For the UK, Ireland or Australia, turn the photo off in Customize — the layout closes up around it and the rest of the page is unchanged.

It is set tight, which helps on the two-page limit most non-academic CVs are read against.

Is Sable the right choice?

Who it suits

Warm two-column work — design, hospitality, anything where warm browns read as considered rather than corporate. The banded headings give a short history more structure than it would otherwise have.

What it does to ATS parsing

Two columns, so give the extracted text a ten-second check. The heading bands are background fills and add nothing to it.

At two pages

The rail empties out on a second page while the history keeps going, which looks unbalanced. Better kept to one.

Use something else if

Halcyon for the same shape in a cooler colour, or Atlas if you want a serif face with it.
