The first is a squat bottle with a plum cap on a purple block, a cut banana beside it, bold cream display type stacked at the top, window light on the wall.
The second is a tall bottle with a white cap on a coral ledge, a mint disc behind, a whole banana beside it, palm leaves at the edges, fine serif overhead.
One sells the attitude. The other sells the holiday.
While working on the homepage for Halfspace, a website design and SEO agency, I explored two different hero visuals for the same headline and layout. Same message, same structure, just a different visual metaphor and mood.
Option 1 - Rocket Launch. Bold, literal, and energetic, visually reinforcing the "launch your business" message with motion and fire.
Option 2 - Glass Cube. Abstract, sleek, and premium, giving a more refined, tech-forward feel without relying on a literal metaphor.
Would love your honest UX/UI take, which direction feels more impactful, memorable, and aligned with a web design/SEO brand, and why?
