How can we develop a custom editable template in AEM 6.4?

Our customer gave us a design mockup and asked us to develop a template similar (background image, over title, text on bottom) to the mockup.

How can we develop an editable template to look like a design mockup? What are the steps/process involved to bring in the HTML and CSS to the editable template?

Should we apply the STYLES at Component level instead at TEMPLATE level?
