Reusable layouts should make the site easier to change. If every copied page becomes an independent fork, reuse has failed.

Reuse at the right level
Global styles handle tokens; presets handle repeated module styling; Theme Builder templates handle repeated content structures; layout libraries handle larger starting compositions.
Name for purpose
Use names such as “Service hero — proof + CTA” instead of “Layout 17.” Purpose-based naming improves reuse and deletion decisions.
Avoid stale copies
When a pattern changes frequently, prefer a reusable system that can be updated centrally rather than dozens of disconnected copies.
Agency library
Keep generic reusable components separate from client-specific brand assets so one library can scale across projects.
