Here could be some top stuff, written directly on the body, usually a logo or a welcome message

This is a header written on the Base

Base is the container div, containing the content

it has a silver background

This a fluid layout

Second Content

the body has the white background with black border

the distance between the start and end of each line and the left and right boxes is dependent upon how small of a window you want before overlap begins

in this case it is 15%, which allows for all content to be seen in a fairly small window. Resize your browser window to see this.

You can also give the left box a fixed width in pixels to match the padding, so that only the right box adjusts.
