# How to Add Split Content Banner to the Studio Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/studio/add-split-content-banner/ — Section Shop, 56 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

Two-column layout with image and text, smooth animations, and hover effects. Features customizable split ratios (50/50, 40/60, 60/40, 30/70, 70/30), optional badge, accent line, and reversible layout. This guide shows how to add the Split Content Banner section to the Studio theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Studio's code. Studio is a free theme by Shopify, known for gallery grids and art-forward presentation — and hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Split Content Banner fits Studio

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. For Studio specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: limited social-proof options, and Split Content Banner fills that gap while inheriting Studio's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. The polaroid-style gallery section gives Studio stores a personal, behind-the-scenes feel stock grids can’t.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Studio setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Split Content Banner” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Hero & Banners category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Studio theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Studio uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Studio theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Split Banner” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Studio font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Split Content Banner work with the Studio theme?

Yes. Studio is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Split Content Banner installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Studio's theme editor as “SShop:Split Banner”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Split Content Banner match Studio's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Studio's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Split Content Banner free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Split Content Banner is free, like every section in the 56-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Studio theme and keeps working.
