Design approval · 3 directions

Same brand,
three moods.

Three takes on Ross's portfolio – identical red / black palette and type, different layout, depth and energy. Open each, flip the light / dark toggle, and pick the one that feels most like Steak Creative.

Each opens as a full page · the light / dark choice carries across all three.

Full-edgy
01

Full-edgy

The "Shadow the Hedgehog personified" brief turned up loud – cinematic hero, red glow, diagonal slashes and an asymmetric gallery. Bold and a little dangerous.

02

Gallery-first

Work-forward and calm. Maximum whitespace, hairline chrome, filterable category tabs and red used only as a precise signal. The most versatile of the three.

Balanced

The dependable middle. Edgy red / black character on a tidy, structured grid – soft-shadow cards with a red accent edge, clear hierarchy, commission-ready.

Prototype for design approval. Galleries use clearly-labelled placeholder tiles grouped by Art / Tattoo / Commissions – real work drops in once a direction is chosen. Contact forms are visual only; project chat and files stay on email / Discord.
