Starting point
When creating the main presentation container for your products which we will call card for convenience, we should start with the maximum amount of items possible and reduce complexity as we can.
Color intensity vs percentage
We can use image size and gradients to define the tone of the card, and guide or divert the attention of the user, putting the example of a eCommerce site which can compete in variety but not in price, we could use subtle gradients to fade away the attention, and increase the product image size to help the user to focus.

Grid Layout
When creating the base card, is important to create alternatives to non conventional formats, for example, very wide images, and combination of product sales, this will create a overall solid design.
