Motion vs stillness on landing pages — which wins? ⚡
Some say animation grabs attention. Others say it kills load time and focus.
Design 2: Subtle Lottie animation, floating elements, dynamic feel.
Design 1: Pixel-perfect static layout, no distractions, pure focus on copy.
As a designer or dev — which would you build?
2️⃣ = Animated | 1️⃣ = Static

Voted Minimal Hero. For B2B SaaS, copy and clarity usually outperform animation. A Lottie hero can look impressive but when the value prop is complex, you need the visitor reading, not watching.
Really interesting concept. It's exciting to see creators pushing beyond traditional app experiences.
Minimal Hero for me. The message is immediately clear, the visual hierarchy is stronger, and my attention goes straight to the value proposition. The animated version feels visually impressive, but the floating elements compete with the headline and make it harder to know where to focus first.

New case study: the landing page for REVAI, a concept AI sales platform.
The brief I gave myself was structural, not decorative: design a page where every section earns the next one. Hero makes one claim and gets out of the way. The value proposition comes before any feature gets named — because a feature nobody understands yet is just noise. Proof (testimonial, logos) sits right before the final ask, not scattered earlier where it does nothing.
Art direction followed the same logic — high contrast where the page needs to make a claim, quieter and more editorial where it needs to build trust. The layout isn't there to look good in isolation. It's there to move someone from "what is this" to "I trust this" in one scroll.
Love the colors dude! Hell of a work🔥
Just wrapped up a new redesign, and I’m really happy with how it turned out. 💻
Can’t wait to share more details and the live site soon...
Sitting on this before the reveal instead of rushing to post it says you're already happy with how it landed, so now I'm curious what part of the redesign you're most excited for people to see once the site goes live.
Have you ever gone this bold on a 404? ⚡
Back to our latest poll: y'all voted Black (60%). We shipped Pink anyway.
Our client's call, not ours - and once you see her brand, you'll get why. Feminine-led, bold, unapologetic - Pink was never really up for debate on her end. 💗👠
