Eyebrow: elegant, modern, simple

Four candidates plus the current setting, each drawn in the centred hero exactly as it stands in home-B-v1.html. Only the label changes between boards. Everything else, including the headline size, the two buttons and the supporting line, is left alone.

The brief lands almost entirely on three settings rather than on adding anything. Tracking: .2em was the house style of about 2015 and now reads as a template default; .08em to .14em keeps small caps legible without stretching them. Weight: Bold at 11px is denser than the headline it introduces; 500 to 600 is enough to hold small caps together. Colour: a saturated BUSINESS blue puts a second coloured element above a NIGHT headline on a blue gradient, which is exactly what stops the eye going to the headline first.

Nothing here adds an object. No pill, no chip, no flanking rules, no gold: a bounded capsule reintroduces the very thing this hero was chosen to remove, and gold in the eyebrow spends the page's only accent twice in one screen.

0On the page now, for reference11px, weight 700, tracking .2em, BUSINESS blue. Kept at the top of the sheet so the comparison has a floor. Three things date it: the tracking is a 2015 default, Bold at 11px is denser than the headline it introduces, and a saturated blue puts a second colour above a NIGHT headline on a blue gradient.

1Corrected small capsThe same device with all three settings fixed: 12px, weight 600, tracking .13em, and NIGHT at 55% instead of BUSINESS blue. Nothing is added and nothing is removed, the label simply stops shouting. This is the smallest change in the set and, for elegant and modern both, probably the largest return.

2Neutral grey, barely trackedOne step further: no brand colour at all, tracking down to .08em, weight 500. The hero then holds exactly two colours before the buttons, NIGHT and the gradient, and the label sits in the same register as a caption. The most restrained of the set. Its risk is that it can read as disabled text rather than as a chosen quiet.

3Sentence caseStops being an eyebrow and becomes a sentence: 15px, weight 500, no tracking, grey. It is the most modern of the four because small caps as a device is itself the dated part, and it is the most simple because there is no styling left to notice. It is also the least elegant in the classical sense, since elegance usually wants a little formality.

4Corrected small caps, carrying a factOption 1’s setting with option 8’s content. The elegance comes from the typography, the value comes from the words: the three states answer the first question anyone has about a law firm. This is the one option where the label would be missed if it were removed.

If you want one: 1 for elegant and modern with the least disruption, 4 if the label should earn its space as well as look right. 3 is the correct answer if you think small caps is itself the dated part, which is a defensible reading of "simple".

Removing the eyebrow entirely remains on the table, and it is drawn as option A on hero-B-refined.html.
