Option 1
This is a great reminder that design isn't just about functionality—it's also about creating a feeling.
option 2 is nice

Spent some time redesigning my portfolio navbar today the first version worked fine but the second one feels like it has more character and personality
sometimes the difference is not functionality
it is just how the design feels
which one would you pick

Good work!
Working on the home screen for a project and exploring a few different directions 👀
The goal is to make discovery feel more personal and intuitive while keeping accessibility at the center of the experience. Right now I’m testing different layouts for recommendations, AI interactions, and overall information hierarchy.
Would love some fresh feedback ✨
Which variation do you like the most and why?
Your feedback could genuinely shape the final direction.

Light mode or dark mode, which do you actually use?
I designed both variants for the MESHKLOUD architect dashboard, and I genuinely cannot pick a favourite. Light mode reads cleaner against the technical drawings, the blueprint lines breathe better, feels more like working at a real desk. Dark mode though pulls the whole interface together differently.
The interesting challenge with this one was that the main content is always a black and white architectural drawing. So the surrounding UI has to complement it without competing. Light mode steps back and lets the drawing do everything. Dark mode wraps it, makes the tool feel like a product you want to sit inside.
What do you default to
