carlosdel123 Hello

Here are basic steps:

• Create new module position
• Create new block
• Add the new block into the layout of template

Create new module position:
I think you're known how to create new position in the file: /templates/gk_blank(your template name)/templateDetails.xml
For example: pos1, pos2

Create new block:
Create a new PHP file: /templates/gk_blank/layouts/blocks/2cols.php
Here are the code to load 2 columns:

<?php
use Joomla\CMS\Factory;
use Joomla\Plugin\System\Gavick\GKTemplate;
use Joomla\Plugin\System\Gavick\Element\GKMenuElement;
use Joomla\Plugin\System\Gavick\Element\GKOffcanvasElement;
use Joomla\Plugin\System\Gavick\Element\GKPresetElement;

// No direct access.
defined('_JEXEC') or die;

$doc = Factory::getDocument();
$params = $doc->params;

?>

<?php if($doc->countModules('pos1') || $doc->countModules('pos2')): ?>
<div id="gk-2cols" class="gk-2cols bg-warning text-white">
  <div class="container">
    <div class="row">
      <?php if($doc->countModules('pos1')): ?>
      <div class="col-12 col-lg-6 gk-pos1-mod d-none d-lg-block">
        <jdoc:include type="modules" name="pos1" style="none" />
      </div>
      <?php endif; ?>
      
      <?php if($doc->countModules('pos2')): ?>
      <div class="col-12 col-lg-6 gk-pos2-mod d-none d-lg-block">
        <jdoc:include type="modules" name="pos2" style="none" />
      </div>
      <?php endif; ?>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Load this new block into the home layout (or other layout on your site)
Open the file: /templates/gk_blank/layouts/home.php
Add this line of code to the section you want:

<?php echo GKTemplate::renderBlock('2cols') ?>

Finally, assign module to these new module positions.

Of course, you will have to customize style for module and this block
