Hero-Centric Design

Also called: Full-bleed hero, Above-the-fold hero, Immersive hero landing

One full-screen scene, one giant headline and one CTA carry the page — everything below the fold is short and quiet.

    Recipes may hard-code decorative colours, sizes or fonts, so a change can apply only in part, and the signature may not hold.

    A landing pattern where the first viewport does almost all the selling. A full-bleed photograph or illustrated scene fills the screen edge to edge, a transparent nav floats on top, and a huge white headline (7–9rem on desktop) sits over a dark scrim with exactly one dominant call to action. The sections after the hero are deliberately lean — three postcards, one quote, one closing banner that repeats the scene — so nothing competes with the opening moment.

    Best for

    • Travel, hotels and destinations
    • Product launches with one hero visual
    • Real-estate and architecture showcases
    • Event and campaign pages

    Avoid for

    • Feature-heavy B2B tools that must explain a lot
    • Pages where speed on slow mobile data matters most
    • Dashboards and utility apps

    ✓ Do

    • Make the hero 100vh with the image edge to edge and a 35–70% dark scrim behind the text
    • Give the hero exactly one filled CTA; demote the second action to a text link
    • Keep sections after the hero to 3–4 and reuse the hero scene in a closing banner
    • Serve the hero image responsive and compressed (AVIF/WebP, < 250 KB)

    ✕ Don't

    • Don’t put a product screenshot, form or carousel inside the hero
    • Don’t place white text on a bright image without a scrim
    • Don’t follow the hero with long feature grids, pricing tables and FAQs

    Not to be confused with

    On mobile

    The first screen becomes a full-height scene card with the headline at the bottom and one full-width CTA; featured cards and onboarding reuse the same image with a bottom scrim, everything else is plain and light. Ship a smaller, compressed image for phones.
