## Before you start
Ask what the user's product, audience, and brand are, then apply these principles to that product rather than copying the reference.

Build a two-tier responsive site header: a slim promotional announcement bar above a primary navigation row. Keep the announcement text centered or left-aligned with a subtle dismiss control. Use a deep navy background for the main row, a bold wordmark area, horizontally grouped navigation links with dropdown indicators, and right-aligned login plus a bright lime rounded primary button. Use approximately #171957 navy, #f7f4e8 warm off-white, and #b7ed58 lime; use 14–16px utility text, 16px navigation text, and a stronger 24–28px brand treatment. Give the rows generous horizontal padding, 32–40px total vertical height, 1px translucent separators, and 6–8px button radius. On smaller screens collapse links into a menu while keeping the main CTA visible.

Never: reuse logos, product names, copy, illustrations, imagery, or exact branding from the reference.
