Editorial Portfolio Chapters

Build the page as a sequence of distinct editorial chapters. Let the work establish desire before explaining the studio.

Establish the Story

1. Open with one strong campaign image and a concise positioning line.
2. Move directly into selected work. Treat each case study as a new magazine cover.
3. Explain the studio point of view only after the work has earned attention.
4. Use oversized service typography as the handoff from proof to contact.
5. End with a high-contrast contact chapter that feels final, not appended.

Replace all source brands, projects, people, claims, images, labels, and links with original or client-provided content. Preserve pacing and hierarchy, not source content.

Build the Visual System

• Frame the page with near-black, then introduce warm white and one muted color field per project.
• Use a grotesk display face with a neutral text companion. Keep labels compact and copy readable.
• Align to a 12-column grid with 40–64px desktop edge margins.
• Favor square or deliberately cropped media, restrained radii, hairline rules, and almost no shadow.
• Let the strongest proof change scale. Do not turn every section into a hero or bento grid.
• Keep full-bleed chapters rare and purposeful.

Compose the Page

• Header: place compact navigation at the outer edges and keep the identity centered or strongly anchored.
• Hero: reserve most of the first viewport for one stable image; expose the first project below the fold.
• Projects: alternate dark framing with muted color panels; show title, role, year, and action without hover.
• Studio: use an asymmetrical portrait or process composition instead of a generic team-card grid.
• Services: set capabilities as large semantic headings or links with controlled wrapping.
• Contact: switch to one unmistakable signal color and one primary action.
• Footer: resolve navigation, location, social links, and legal text without competing with the contact ask.
