Original layout study · creative design
Build the page around one strong idea
A portfolio needs a point of view before it needs an animation. Lead with a short description of your practice and a project that makes it concrete. Give each case study enough space to explain the brief, your role and the result. An unusual layout works best when the navigation stays familiar.
Keep the project grid consistent
Choose a repeatable crop for the overview, then use full images inside the project page. Write meaningful project names rather than relying on hover captions. A person browsing on a phone should be able to understand the work without activating an effect.
Plan the quieter pages too
Treat services, about and contact as part of the same experience. Use the same heading scale and spacing rhythm across them. Put a clear next step near the end of each case study, and make the contact route work without animation or a heavy background video.
