Specify the `layout` field in front matter to target a particular template. See [details].
[details]: /templates/lookup-order/#target-a-template
{{< code-toggle file=content/contact.md >}}
title = 'Contact'
layout = 'contact'
{{< /code-toggle >}}
Hugo will render the page using contact.html.
```text
layouts/
└── _default/
├── baseof.html
├── contact.html
├── home.html
├── list.html
└── single.html
```
Although rarely used within a template, you can access the value with:
```go-html-template
{{ .Layout }}
```
The `Layout` method returns an empty string if the `layout` field in front matter is not defined.
