Which Plushie Email Verification Design Do You Prefer?
I explored a couple of directions for Plushie’s email verification experience, keeping the core idea the same while experimenting with different layouts, visual hierarchy, and ways to make the verification code feel more playful.
Version 01 - Visual-first, with a strong hero illustration
Version 02 - More structured, clean, and email-focused
Both follow the same soft, plushie-inspired visual language.
Which version would you choose for Plushie? 👀

Pro design 🤩
Thank you. 😊 Don't forget to vote, will help to argue with the client. 😂
Version 02, mostly because showing it inside the actual email client chrome builds more trust that this is really landing in the inbox. Version 01's illustration is charming but it's competing with the code for attention.
Agreed. Version 02 feels more authentic because showing the design within the actual email client chrome reinforces that this is a real inbox experience rather than just a standalone mockup.
I also agree that while Version 01’s illustration adds personality, it competes with the code for attention.

We are still in discussion with the client whether he should go ahead with the different personality mascots instead of one but he is insisting on keeping only 1 mascot for the whole lineup.
Do you prefer same mascot or different personality mascots while being consistent in style? I would also love to know the reason behind your choice.

Same mascot is the smarter long-term play for shelf recognition — especially for kids' yoghurt. The 1 mascot with different color outfits/accessories per flavor keeps it collectible but consistent.
If you go different personalities, you lose brand equity every time you launch a...
Two warm ups today, both might become full case studies:
Parlata: an audio-postcard service that records and archives local dialects. Every recording becomes a small printed card with a QR link.
MODULO: an Industrial IoT brand. Olive, navy, one wobbly blob.
One is warm and human. One is technical and playful. Which would you want to see go all the way?

Love it
Two hero sections I built, two opposite moods. CryoCloud went dark and scientific so a cryo-EM lab trusts it on sight. eeedo went warm and light so customer support feels human. Same job for both: make a first-time visitor believe the product in a few seconds. Which one pulls you in more? Vote, and tell me what made you pick it 👇
