# Dual Content Tiles

> Display two side-by-side content tiles with text, buttons, media, and optional product cards.

The Dual Content Tiles section displays two side-by-side content tiles. Each tile can contain text, buttons, media, and optionally a product card. This section is ideal for highlighting two related stories, campaigns, or product-focused content areas.

Dual content tiles help create balanced, visually engaging layouts that can showcase complementary products, seasonal campaigns, or editorial content in a structured format.
