I’m not a particularly mystical person, but sometimes that world crosses my path.
Not long ago, I had the opportunity to take a Design class where we were challenged to create our own version of a Major Arcana Tarot card, choosing both the card and a design style to represent it.
The Sun has always held a significant place in my life—not just as a concept, but as a tangible physical presence—so the choice was easy. From there, I had no doubt about choosing Art Deco as the primary style, as it evokes the same feeling in me that the Sun does: absolute passion.
My final design was built from an illustration created in Illustrator and refined in AI: a stained-glass window that captures the light passing through it and radiates it back out into the world.
Basing the sunburst on a stained-glass window instead of a flat sun icon gives "The Sun" its glow logic — light passing through and radiating back reads as motivated, not just decorative radial lines.
Day 7/30 of designing one hero section every day.
First, some honesty: "every day" hasn't happened. I started this challenge 13 days ago, and this is post 7, real life kept turning it into every other day. I'd rather say that plainly than quietly hope nobody counts. From tomorrow, I'm aiming for daily again.
But here's what I've learned already: showing up on an imperfect schedule beats abandoning a perfect one. Each of these seven has taught me something a tutorial couldn't.
Today: The Midnight Table — a one-night-only signature dining experience.
→ My first hero with zero photography. Everything is hand-drawn ink illustration on cream — plates, kettles, pastries, a whole tabletop of them. (Credits: magnific) When every restaurant site reaches for moody food photos, illustration instantly reads as "this event is different."
→ Ink blue and cream, one coral accent.
7 down, 23 to go- at whatever honest pace it takes😊

It is really cool! A quick tip; if you dont cut the objects on the right visual with a frame around, it will increase the depth feeling and this hero section will level up for sure!
