/* ── Site banner ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
   The banner sits flush below the nav, edge-to-edge across the viewport.

   width: 100%
     Stretch the container to the full browser width, ignoring any page
     padding. Because <body> has no horizontal padding itself, this
     reaches wall-to-wall.

   height: 420px
     A fixed pixel height for the "frame". The image inside will be
     cropped/scaled to fit this box — so no matter how tall your original
     art is, the banner is always exactly this tall on screen.
     Tweak this number freely to make the banner taller or shorter.

   overflow: hidden
     The image will be slightly larger than its container after
     object-fit: cover scales it up. overflow: hidden clips anything
     that spills outside the 420px frame, keeping edges clean.

   position: relative
     Needed so that the ::after gradient overlay (see below) can be
     positioned relative to the banner, not the whole page.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── */
/* ── Site banner ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
   Instead of a fixed-height strip that force-crops the art, this uses a
   centered card approach — like the reference. The image displays at its
   natural proportions inside a max-width container, so nothing gets cut.

   padding: 2rem 2rem 0
     Gives breathing room on the left/right and top so the card floats
     away from the nav a little. No bottom padding — the card's bottom
     edge blends into the hero section below via the ::after gradient.

   The outer wrapper is just for horizontal centering + side padding.
