The first is a stack of lacquered yellow boxes set off centre from each other, no two openings the same size. Cream and oxblood spines fill some cubes, a dark stone bowl sits alone in another, the rest left empty. Plum walls and floor, a cobalt return at the edge, window light raking across in long diagonals.
The second is a single arched frame in dark walnut, the dividers carved so they flare where they meet each shelf. Pale blue and cream books, a looped ceramic, a small stone bowl. Soft blue plaster behind with a shallow circle cut into it, an olive branch and a clay vase in the morning light.
One sells a statement. The other sells an heirloom.
A or B?
Same site, two moods.
My new portfolio is still in progress, and I am stuck on one call.
I have stared at both for so long I lost all objectivity, so I am handing this one to you.
Drop left or right in the comments, first instinct, no overthinking.
Whichever wins, you basically art directed my site today.
