Should animation simply catch attention, or invite interaction?
In the first version, the abstract form continuously transforms on its own. It keeps the hero section dynamic and atmospheric without requiring any action from the user.
In the second version, the object reacts to cursor movement through a parallax effect. The experience becomes more playful, immersive, and responsive.
One gives users something to watch. The other gives them something to influence.
Which approach works better for a hero section: automatic motion or interactive animation?

The option 1
What if a gallery felt like scrolling through someone’s feed?
For Namaste Studios, I wanted the gallery section to have a bit more personality than the usual collection of neatly arranged images.
So I borrowed a visual language we already know instinctively: Instagram posts.
The cards sit around the main content and stay sticky as you scroll, creating this playful, layered composition that slowly unfolds with the page.
It makes the section feel less like “here are some photos from our studio” and more like you’re getting little glimpses into the world of Namaste.
Sometimes a familiar interaction, used in a slightly unexpected way, is all a section needs.
Built for my Namaste Studios Framer template. 🌿
Love it 🧡
Two directions for this hero section.
Which one's winning for you, v1 or v2?

Both are strong! I like the subtle detailing in V2.
But I guess the liquid background of V1 feels extra immersive.
