Built a concept website for an autonomous surveillance robot fully interactive 3D scene running live in Spline.
Dark environment, electric blue lightning, the unit sitting right in the middle of it. The kind of hero section that doesn't need a headline to make a point.
You're an amazing designer!
I’m exploring two homepage hero directions for a Coffeebar concept and testing which one feels stronger for the brand.
Direction 1 leans more editorial and product-focused, with a cleaner cream layout, image grid, and a stronger emphasis on coffee culture and product discovery.
Direction 2 feels more immersive and lifestyle-driven, using full-bleed photography, darker overlays, and a warmer coffeehouse atmosphere to create more emotion and brand personality.
Both directions can work, but they communicate slightly different things:
Direction 1: clean, curated, product-forward
Direction 2: warm, emotional, lifestyle-focused
I’m leaning toward the second direction because it feels more human and memorable, but I’d love to hear which one feels stronger at first glance.

Direction 2 for me — full-bleed photography creates that 'I want to be there' feeling instantly. Direction 1 is clean but Direction 2 has soul.
