WEB BUILDER / HEROES

Hero variants — same kit, different first impression.

The Hero block ships four variants and three motion options. Each one is rendered below on real copy. Each is keyboard accessible, respects prefers-reduced-motion, and inherits brand tokens.

Variant 1 — centered (default)

DEFAULT

Centered hero. Readable text column.

The default variant. Text-first, controlled width, optional CTAs. Used when the page does not need imagery in the hero — and most pages don't. Compose ImageBand below for cover imagery.

Variant 2 — full (centered, wider)

FULL VARIANT

Full-width centered hero.

When the page deserves wider visual breath — landing hero, marketing flagship — full variant uses the section_container width with centered alignment for both the heading and the CTAs.

Variant 3 — cinematic with ken-burns motion

CINEMATIC + KEN-BURNS

Full-bleed background with a slow zoom + pan loop.

The cinematic variant takes a backgroundImage and an overlay opacity. Add motion='ken-burns' for a slow infinite loop (30s, ease-in-out, alternates). Respect prefers-reduced-motion: motion stops, image stays.

Variant 4 — cinematic with parallax motion (scroll-driven)

CINEMATIC + PARALLAX

Background translates slightly as the section scrolls.

Same cinematic variant with motion='parallax'. Uses CSS animation-timeline: view() where supported. Older browsers receive no motion — the static image displays normally. Zero JS overhead.

Variant 5 — cinematic with gradient-overlay motion

CINEMATIC + GRADIENT OVERLAY

Slow hue and position shift on the overlay.

Same cinematic variant with motion='gradient-overlay'. The overlay blends the brand secondary and primary tokens in a 24-second loop. Subtle by default; the headline stays the focal point.

Variant 6 — centered with GradientBlob ambient

AMBIENT GRADIENT

Hero with a GradientBlob layer behind it.

The GradientBlob primitive renders 1-3 blurred colour blobs that drift slowly. It sits behind any container with position: relative; overflow: hidden. Brand-token aware.
