Hi there, I have a hosting business and my site is powered by Joomla . 
Now I am thinking of using K2 to enhance my site's look, feel and functionality. I have the following 
question:
1: Can I use K2 to style my home page similar to the attached sample image? If yes, can this be done by just adjusting defaulting K2 parameters settings (without customizing K2.css, php or using override)
2: what is menu options should I use to (item, category, etc) to display this grid to my home page?
thank you in advance

Hi Tura,

Yes, you can get this layout with K2, just configure the category with 4 primary items on 2 columns.

Some css stuff and K2 template overriding just to go deeper in the customization.

Just create an itemlist pointing to the right k2 category and it'll work.

Hi Oliver,
Thank you for reply.
I created one category, then 4 items for it, then created a menu link and link to the Category
changed Category Item Layout ( Leads, Primary, Secondary ) configuration as follows:
Primary Count =4
Columns for Primary =2
Lead=2
Columns for Lead =4

But the layout still messy. what am I doing wrong. I don't the nice grid layout.
Below is what my layout looks like
