Island first gets my vote too, Irkham. Place before product builds the world before the promise, and for beauty that first second really is everything. Smart controlled test.
Exploring two different hero directions for a new project.
Same message, two completely different visual approaches.
Which one makes a stronger first impression?
Both are strong. I lean towards the dark version, because the orange accent on the italic "guess." pops and the profile portrait gives it a more editorial, confident feel. The navy one reads a bit more corporate, which could suit a more conservative audience. Nice exploration!
Keeping the research plan and cited results side by side is a useful way to make the agent’s work easier to inspect. I’d lean toward light mode for reading the table in daylight. How do you distinguish a verified source from one that still needs review?
