# ARTSABERS — Product Type Category Build Brief
**Illustrating example:** *Lightsabers* — the top-level product family at ARTSABERS. ~1,100 SKUs across all sub-styles (single-blade / double-bladed / cross-guard / curved-hilt / custom) and all four electronics tiers (S-RGB → Proffie 2.2 Duelling Pro).
## Page purpose
A **discovery-oriented landing page for a top-level product family**. Someone lands here because they know they want a lightsaber but need to navigate what’s available. Reads as a technical showroom — what styles exist, what tiers exist, what the recommendation logic is. The reader leaves with either a specific sub-category to browse OR a specific tier to filter to.
## Section stack (top to bottom)
1. **Global chrome** — nav + promo bar.
2. **Breadcrumbs** — `Lightsabers`.
3. **Category overview hero** — full-bleed cinematic hero showing multiple blade styles arrayed (photograph-brief placeholder describing the shot), 100vh, product-family display “LIGHTSABERS.” + editorial one-line “Every blade shape, every electronics tier, every duelling grade — since 2020.” Primary CTA “Enter the collection” + ghost “Find your saber”.
4. **Sub-category browse tiles** — 5-tile row (or 3×2 grid if 5 doesn’t fit): Single-Blade / Double-Bladed / Cross-Guard / Curved-Hilt / Custom-Built. Each tile: photograph-brief placeholder of a representative hilt from that sub-style, sub-category name, SKU count (“142 hilts” / “34 hilts” etc.), short editorial phrase.
5. **Electronics tier ladder** — 5-tier card row same shape as MAS44’s electronics comparison but as CATEGORY navigation. Each card: tier name (S-RGB / RGB-X / Xenopixel V3 / Proffie 2.2 / Proffie 2.2 Duelling Pro), tier price band (“From $89” / “From $149” / “From $299” / “From $459” / “From $599”), 3 key spec bullets, CTA “Browse tier”. Real hilt photography on each card same as MAS44 (Black Hammer / Black Hela / Black Smasher V2 / Mando Black / Ordo V2 for the 5 tiers).
6. **Find your saber** — quiz/filter promo band on charcoal. Left copy: display headline “Not sure where to start?” + 2-line editorial. Right: a stylised “3-step filter” mockup showing filter categories (Character / Style / Tier). Primary CTA “Start the finder”.
7. **Featured bestsellers** — 3-across product-specimen cards showing 3 top-selling hilts across the family (real Anakin EP3 / Luke ROTJ Weathered / Ordo V2 same as homepage Fan Favourites).
