You get about five seconds before a new visitor decides to keep reading or close the tab.
If your hero section feels cluttered or confusing, you are losing potential clients before they even see your full offer. The first screen needs to be designed with clear intent.
Here is what every high converting first screen needs:
• Headline: A punchy, value focused message that tells people exactly what you do in seconds.
• Visual: Clean, high quality imagery that connects with your audience and supports the story.
• Call to Action: A single, obvious button that makes taking the next step effortless.
• Trust: Client proof, ratings, and recognizable logos right where people can see them immediately.
When you design the first screen with purpose, turning visitors into paying customers becomes much easier.

The hardest brief in identity work is "make us look serious without making us look corporate."
Serious comes from consistency. Corporate comes from removing anything a person chose.
"Corporate comes from removing anything a person chose" is going straight in my notes. I'd push it further though, I think a lot of that removal happens in legal and stakeholder review, not the initial design pass. Do you find the fight is more with the client's own instincts or with whoever signs off after them?
A Webflow to Framer migration and website overhaul for pliability, the #1 mobility app in the world. Custom code components, scroll animations, CMS-driven landing pages for campaign launches, and over 400 CMS items migrated from Webflow.
pliability provided the new website design, and @Mason Price and I brought it to life in Framer. Huge shoutout to Mason for collaborating; he has the highest level of mastery when it comes to Framer development.
This is beautiful!
AURA — Luxury Fragrance Website 🌸✨
AURA is a luxury fragrance website concept built around softness, atmosphere, and product storytelling.
The goal was to make the perfume feel almost weightless — combining dreamy skies, delicate pastel tones, translucent UI elements, and an oversized product visual to create an emotional first impression.
Special attention was given to:
• a product-focused hero that makes the fragrance the main visual anchor
• soft glassmorphism cards for fragrance notes, pricing, and product details
• an airy pastel palette inspired by clouds, light, and floral notes
• elegant typography that adds a premium editorial feel
• a fragrance selector that introduces different scents without distracting from the hero
• clear product discovery and shopping actions
• a mobile experience that keeps the same immersive visual atmosphere
• a lightweight mobile menu with product discovery and social touchpoints
The result is a soft, premium digital experience that combines luxury storytelling with clear e-commerce functionality.
Looking to create a distinctive website for your beauty, fragrance, or lifestyle brand? Let’s create something memorable ✨
The typography fits the fragrance vibe perfectly 🌷
