Grow heroes Not the crate. Host → grow → leave. Grow page → Try A Try B Try C

Theme stem as cultivation: we are the stem; a client is a leaf. Sprout on our tree, grow, then drop off to their own domain. Hero should feel that lifecycle — not a found relic in a box.

Shortlist below. Sketches that felt relic / forge / magic palm got parked. Copper light stays as heat accent even on the green jersey.

Shortlist · three

A · lead
Nodes release Hosted lights on the stem; one leaves. Clearest business metaphor in one frame.
Leaf departure hero
B
Leaf departure Proud drop — kinetic, almost too literal, but the blur keeps it poetic.
Canopy gap hero
C
Canopy gap Hosting as architecture. The story is the empty sky — something graduated.
