Text banner

One sentence, set large, ruled off from the page above and below. There are no blocks. The whole section is the line, a label above it, and a signature under it.

What it does: Gives the store somewhere to say what it stands for, in its own voice, without dressing it up as a product pitch. It is a band of quiet between two busy sections.

Key settings (the whole section):

Setting	What it does	Default
Color scheme	Section colors. It arrives on the dark scheme, which is what makes it read as a pause in a pale page.	scheme-night
Heading width	Narrow, Normal, Wide, or Full width.	Normal
Heading alignment	Left, center, or right.	Center
Subheading	The small label.	”The house line”
Quote	The line itself. Italicize part of it and the theme prints that part in the emphasis font and the accent color, which is how the two halves of a line are told apart.	”Make less. Mend the rest.”
Signature	The small line under the quote. It says who is speaking, and since when.	”The house, since 2019”
Layout	Centered sets everything on one axis. Stacked runs label, quote and signature straight down. Staggered offsets the label to one edge and the signature to the other.	Staggered
Quote size	Medium, Large, or Display.	Large
Divider lines	None, Above, Below, or Above and below.	Above and below

The section also carries a Section spacing group. Pick a Device of Desktop or Mobile, then set Top and Bottom padding from 0 to 200px. Desktop starts at 96px and mobile at 56px.

Tip

Keep the quote to one breath. At Display size a long sentence wraps to four lines and stops being a banner. It becomes a paragraph set too large. If you need a paragraph, use Rich text.

When to use it: Use it between two heavy sections, where the page needs air and the store needs a position. For a quote from somebody else, use Press quote. For quotes from customers, use Customer quotes. For the same idea moving sideways, use Scrolling text.
