I've just finished my first ASP.NET MVC (2) CMS. Next step is to build website that will show data from CMS's database. This is website design:

#1 (Red box) - displays article categories. ViewModel:

public class CategoriesDisplay
    {
        public CategoriesDisplay() { }

        public int CategoryID { set; get; }
        public string CategoryTitle { set; get; }
    }

#2 (Brown box) - displays last x articles; skips those from green box #3. Viewmodel:

public class ArticleDisplay
    {
        public ArticleDisplay() { }

        public int CategoryID { set; get; }
        public string CategoryTitle { set; get; }

        public int ArticleID { set; get; }

        public string ArticleTitle { set; get; }
        public string URLArticleTitle { set; get; }
        public DateTime ArticleDate;

        public string ArticleContent { set; get; }

    }

#3 (green box) - Displays last x articles. Uses the same ViewModel as brown box #2

#4 (blue box) - Displays list of upcoming events. Uses dataContext.Model.Event as ViewModel

Boxes #1, #2 and #4 will repeat all over the site and they are part of Master Page. So, my question is: what is the best way to transfer this data from Model to Controller and finally to View pages?

1. Should I make a controller for master page and ViewModel class that will wrap all this classes together OR
2. Should I create partial Views for every of these boxes and make each of them inherit appropriate class (if it is even possible that it works this way?) OR
3. Should I put this repeated code in all controllers and all additional data transfer via ViewData, which would be probably the worse way :) OR
4. There is maybe a better and more simple way but I don't know/see it?

Thanks in advance, Ile
