I prefer the white version.
One small suggestion, use the same gradient on the hand as in the blue concept. I would also make the product a bit more prominent since it is the main focus.
Appreciate the feedback! Can give that a try yeah
I'm not sure about the color, but the most thing impressed me was the dynamic layout in light mode. Clean, straight to the poin, and clearly communicate what this is about. Even though the shadow on hands a little bit odd, but it doesn't really matter I think. You have done an outstanding job here. congratulation!
Appreciate the feedback! Super helpful
Thanks Samuel!
I will pick blue 🙌

The blue gradient is awesome, this looks like it will be great!
Having some animations too in mind!
I can't lie, blue is nice... But there's just something about white that draws me in😍✨🔥
Appreciate the feedback man :)
This deserves more than just liking, this deserves to be featured! 🏆 The blue version would make an incredibly striking landing page hero section.
Thanks a lot for the kind words man :)
Really Awesome WOrk

To me, white is more professional than blue!

Blue
Blue for sure. Immediately draws the eyes to both the messaging and screen.
White
I'd go with blue although I mistakenly voted white 😂
i went for white
White 100% simple, clean and readable
Appreciate the feedback man :)
Voting for Blue. The color gradient gives the hero section a lot more energy and personality right away. It makes the platform feel modern and welcoming for an app landing page.
Blue wins for me. White one is just too white and plain to eye.
blue is nice!

@Brady Patterson designed for the 49ers, apple, hulu, fox sports.
now he brands roofers and garage door companies. and he doesn't charge a flat fee, he takes a cut of the leads.
most designers read that as a step down. it's a designer who found clients that can actually measure him.
a big tech client has forty inputs feeding revenue and no way to isolate yours. you get paid for the deliverable and the value of your work stays an opinion.
a roofer has a phone that rings or doesn't.
that's the client who can pay you on results. not because they're generous, because they can prove it.

How to Out-Strategy as a Designer AI in 2026 🎬
In this episode, we sat with @Brady Patterson who went from working with top sport brands like 49ers, USC, Fox Sports, Apple, and Hulu to building cult‑like brands and high‑converting websites for roofers, garage door companies, and blue‑collar businesses.
We also unpack why “unsexy” trades might be the best niche designers are sleeping on, and how to turn creativity into consistent, lead‑driven income.

Great episode, really enjoyed recording it.
Meridial — Wealth Management Platform
For Meridial, I designed a system where the one thing that matters — portfolio drift — always surfaces first, no matter how many clients an advisor is tracking.
Signal over noise, even at 200+ portfolios. ⚪
The challenge:
Advisors managing dozens of portfolios need to instantly spot what's drifted from target — without digging through spreadsheets or noisy dashboards that bury the signal in data.
A dark, grain-textured UI gives Meridial a private-banking feel instead of typical fintech blue. The landing page proves the product directly in the hero with live allocation and drift cards, while the dashboard extends the same card system into radar charts, composition breakdowns, and a weekly digest — built so advisors can scan hundreds of portfolios at a glance.
A case in making complex portfolio data resolve into one clear signal.
The dark grain-textured UI gives this a truly exclusive private-banking feel. Did you animate the allocation drift cards and radar charts using Jitter or native Figma prototypes?
