First comes the mood, then comes the magic ✨
Currently building the moodboard for a luxury perfume website — thinking rich, seductive, elegant, a little mysterious, and definitely not boring. 🖤🥂
Before designing the pixels, I’m setting the vibe. Because a luxury brand shouldn’t just look good — it should feel expensive.

Same brand.
Same color palette.
Same subject.
Two completely different design directions.
I designed two hero sections for the same beauty salon to see which one creates a stronger first impression.
A or B?
Which one would you choose and more importantly, why?
I’m curious to see what the design community prefers. 👇

I'm torn on this one honestly, A feels warmer and more editorial while B leans a little more retail-catalog. What made you land on testing this pair specifically instead of two totally different concepts?

When designing a consulting agency website, most people lead with services.
We usually do too. It feels like the logical starting point.
But when we worked on Orvian Labs, we tried something different.
Instead of opening with what they do, we led with what the client actually needs to feel before they read anything clarity and trust.
The hero doesn't list services. It just says "We Bring The Clarity Your Business Needs." And the rest of the page builds the case quietly a scrolling industry list, a three-card value section, 120+ projects as a single trust signal, and a dark manifesto block that finally tells you who they are.
The testimonial comes last. By that point, the visitor already believes it.
What we noticed was that leading with feeling before features made the layout decisions much easier. Every section had a clear emotional job to do, not just an informational one.
This was one of our website layouts to work through. Hope you like it.
