Do / Don't
Reference it for
- Defeating clinical coldness with playful Bauhaus geometry (scattered coloured half-circles) on a warm cream canvas, paired with an elegant serif headline.
- Patient-joy as proof: candid happy-patient photo walls ("We're All Smiles", "Patient Stories") instead of stock clinical imagery.
- A prominent before-and-after gallery to make a cosmetic outcome concrete and believable.
- Serif display + Gotham body to read as design-led and premium, not sterile.
- Gentle motion and a friendly teal accent that keep it warm and approachable.
Do not copy
- The literal Grand Street geometric composition and colourway (re-skin the shapes and palette to the client).
- Superior Title + Gotham if licence-bound - substitute a comparable elegant serif + clean sans.
- The WordPress + ZocDoc + CallRail + Smash Balloon stack (~54 scripts). Rebuild lean on Astro.
- The patient photos (real people, consent-bound). Use the client's own consented patient imagery.

Bauhaus-geometry-plus-serif warm hero
a cosmetic-dental hero defeats clinical dread with scattered muted Bauhaus half-circles (pink, orange, cobalt, white) on a warm cream canvas behind an elegant serif headline ('Dentistry Redesigned') - no clinical imagery at all, so the practice reads as a design-led lifestyle brand.
patient-joy as proof
candid, genuinely happy patient photos fill 'Patient Stories' (a carousel) and a 'We're All Smiles' photo wall, making real human happiness - not credentials or stock smiles - the warmest possible proof for a self-conscious purchase.
before-and-after concreteness
