Other navbar variants in Soft Flat
Navbar Centered
Symmetric navbar inside a soft rounded well: links split left and right of a centered wordmark with two overlapping dots, ink pill CTA at the far right; stacked sheet on mobile.
Navbar Sheet
Minimal bar with a wordmark and a big “Menu” pill that unfolds a grid of pastel link tiles (title, description, arrow) with a staggered bouncy entrance, on every screen size.

Navbar Bold
Sticky top bar with square logo mark, mono uppercase links, underlined login and a pressable yellow CTA. Collapses into a full-width stacked menu on mobile.
Navbar Centered
Boxed navbar card with a hard shadow: links split left and right around a tilted yellow wordmark sticker in the center, ink CTA pressing into its shadow. Mobile opens a two-column ruled menu grid.
Navbar Overlay
Minimal bar (wordmark + ink MENU button with animated burger) that opens a full-screen yellow overlay with giant numbered links sliding on hover, a contact line and CTA. Same menu on every screen size.

Two-tier sticky header: a scrolling ink announcement ticker on top, then a ruled bar where every link is a full-height cell that floods yellow on hover and a blue CTA block on the right.
Navbar Bar
Full-width sticky frosted bar with a Features dropdown that opens a glass panel of four icon cards, plain links and a gradient pill CTA; stacked mobile menu.
Navbar Dock
macOS-style floating bottom dock: a glass pill of round icon links that magnify with a spring when hovered (neighbours too), tooltips, a gradient active item with dot and an ink CTA.
Navbar Floating
Floating frosted pill navbar detached from the top edge: gradient orb logo, centered links, gradient CTA. On mobile the pill opens a frosted dropdown panel that fades in.
