Summary

Designer portfolio homepage with oversized typography and stacked 3-column project grid, anchored by archive and collaboration list.

Visual description

Light background with black sans-serif navigation and header credentials (5+ years experience, 30+ clients, 50+ projects). A large, left-aligned headline set in heavy weight overlaps subtle background imagery. Below, a two-section layout: first, a 3-column grid of project cards (Maia, Kube, Zero visible) with photography and dark overlays, each tagged with project category and year; second, an alphabetical list of archive projects (Co:Create, WeRFarmers, Caminhos Film Festival, UXP, Jazz ao Centro Clube, JOF, Queima das Fitas) paired with category tags and years. Footer text in small caps: "Let's talk".

Key takeaway

The split rhythm between showpiece grid projects and a scannable archive list gives portfolio breathing room without losing discovery. The year-tagged categorization across both sections creates temporal narrative. Dense stacked information (credentials, project tags, years) uses restraint in color and scale to remain legible.

Reuse notes

Strong pattern for designer or creative studio portfolios where you need to show breadth (archive) alongside curated highlights. Works on light backgrounds. The oversized headline pairs well with a simple sans-serif system. Grid cards benefit from photography and subtle dark overlays to anchor heterogeneous imagery.
