I pick option 1
Option 1 for sure. Looks more immersive
Option 1 for me — the glassy dark panel makes the top ranks pop way more. Was the flatter option 2 your original client-approved direction, or is this an internal redesign push?
It was a real taste test based on the client’s reference. We tried to recreate the glassy effect from their reference, exactly as you noticed (good eye, Maty👍 ).But made it more obvious and put more accent on contrast to help that effect read clearly. Unexpectedly, the client chose Option 2.
Ha, that's a fun twist — proof that our "obvious" read isn't always the client's. Good sign you tested rather than just shipped your gut pick though.
