  2. Slide 2 of Particle-1's deck
    Slide 2Download slide imageAcceptable The oversized option cards leave substantial unused space below their content; shorter cards would make the layout more balanced.The lower half of each option card is empty, so the cards look oversized for their content
  3. Slide 3 of Particle-1's deck
    Slide 3Download slide imagePolished The side panel's bottom half is empty
  4. Slide 4 of Particle-1's deck
    Slide 4Download slide imageAcceptable The table text is relatively small for a projected presentation, despite ample unused space below.The table is not sorted or highlighted, so Holloway and Marsh Lane do not stand out as the title claims
  5. Slide 5 of Particle-1's deck
    Slide 5Download slide imageAcceptable The tall option cards leave large empty areas beneath the text.The cards are roughly half empty below the bullets
  6. Slide 6 of Particle-1's deck
    Slide 6Download slide imageAcceptable The large 'Adopt option B' heading competes with the slide title and repeats its message.The title wraps and leaves 'review' alone on the second line
