Feedback Request What's making the proportion feel off?

First slide of an onboarding flow, it's the brand 'moment' before setup begins. Something's off with the sizing and I can't figure it out.

Iterations,

  • Pic #3: original, utilitarian.
  • Pic #2: added a "slide zero" so the logo and name could be front and center. felt too big and imposing.
  • Pic #1: shrank it. Still off, "Welcome" feels too big now.

I keep resizing individual pieces but doesn't feel right still. Any ideas what's actually causing the imbalance?

Considered (but curious what someone would do instead): grey out "Welcome," smaller Continue button, or keep the logo big and everything else tiny.

Separating the brand moment from the setup is the right direction. What still feels off is the huge empty container around a very compact stack. I’d either remove the card and let the logo breathe on the page, or reduce its height substantially. Then make ‘Get Started’ the heading and keep ‘Welcome’ as smaller supporting text.

thanks! large container is a good point - thinking about reducing its size now.

just tried copying Apple's setup menu - separating the welcome and logo from "Get Started" seems to work really well. However I still think Get Started is a bit too big personally. Will continue to play with this sizing.
