How to use this block

Treat the component as one production section inside a larger message system. Keep the shared classes and wrapper rules intact, then adapt the copy, imagery, and links to the send.

Use this block when...

  • Use when a darker hero or CTA section follows immediately and the send should feel visually continuous.
  • Swap the placeholder mark for a real logo asset before exporting production HTML.

Keep in mind

  • Check contrast carefully between the dark background and any transparent logo asset you drop in.
  • Keep the header shallow so it does not become an obstacle for keyboard and screen-reader users.

Client-specific notes

  • Gmail (Web + Mobile): Primary spacing, stack order, and CTA rendering stay stable in Gmail web and mobile views.
  • Outlook Desktop (Windows): Dark logo rows are stable, though Outlook can tighten padding around the image wrapper.
