Variation

IF the product recommendations are shown in a single scrollable row with the “View All” link placed at the top, THEN more users will engage with individual products and click into the full collection, BECAUSE horizontal scrolling creates a smoother browsing experience and the repositioned CTA improves visibility and actionability.

What We Changed

  • Changed from a grid layout to a horizontally scrollable single row.
  • Moved "View All" link to the top, under "New Arrivals".
  • Enlarged product images and reduced text size.
  • Added color swatches and center-aligned content.
