To sharpen my CSS skills, I built a fictional e-commerce site called Meow Hosting. This project gave me hands-on experience with responsive styling while allowing me to explore advanced techniques like Intersection Observer and React refs to enhance user interaction and layout behavior.
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?
