Aanstekelijk.

Why it caught our eye

Aanstekelijk uses a dark opening with oversized expressive typography and compact agency navigation. The contrast gives the branding room to lead.

Built with

Kirby

Design takeaway

Give a dramatic opening a clear route to work and contact so personality supports discovery.

Adapt for mobile: Avoid making the introduction dependent on a long animation, and keep menu controls visible.
