Summary
A personal portfolio hero page featuring an animated sketchbook carousel that cycles through hand-drawn urban sketches and watercolor travel journal spreads from cities across Asia and the US.
Visual description
The composition centers an open sketchbook against a light gray background, with a large, blurred blue name "Matthew Yu" layered behind it. The sketchbook displays a watercolor illustration of Osaka Castle on the right page and various ephemera, such as stamps and tickets, on the left. Minimalist, uppercase sans-serif typography is used for the navigation and labels.
Key takeaway
Layering a large, blurred typographic element behind a sharp, detailed central subject to create depth and visual interest.
Reuse notes
Reach for this as a ui screen reference. Pairs with typographic, minimal directions. Original by Matthew Yu.
