# NEXUS Featured Masonry module

## Editorial purpose

Use the Vesper featured masonry module to convey depth, variety, and editorial abundance through a visually rich, non-uniform layout that encourages exploration.

Use it to feature content in editorial selections that mix editorial entities — like [stories](/v1/docs/stories) — and OTT entities — like [VESPER Seasons](/v1/docs/vesper-seasons).

> [!NOTE]
> Native Support for VESPER Geo-Blocking
> 
> This module provides native support for VESPER geo-blocking. Any entity marked as geo-blocked is automatically excluded from the list.

> [!WARNING]
> VESPER Bucket entities excluded
> 
> Buckets are collections of items, just like editorial selections. As you cannot add Editorial Selections to an Editorial Selection, this module prevents a collection (the Bucket) from being rendered as an item within another collection (the Editorial Selection).
> 
> For that reason, the front-end skips rendering the [VESPER Bucket](/v1/docs/vesper-bucket) entities in the editorial selection that feeds the module.
