The collage definitely seems to give the user more freedom to take their time to observe each item and I feel like it's a better choice for a smoother experience, but I do love both!
Orbit feels way more premium and intentional. It gives the brand room to breathe while holding the user's attention right on the identity. Fantastic execution.
Orbit, for the reason that matters on a first screen: it gives the eye one place to land, so the headline and CTA still get read. Collage can win on a portfolio page where browsing is the goal.
Same content, different experience. A few thoughtful design choices can completely change how a presentation feels, flows, and communicates. Which version would you choose?
