Unpopular opinion: white space isn't "wasted" space. đ¤
A lot of clients ask me to "fill in the gaps" but empty space is what makes the important stuff stand out in the first place.
A packed layout feels busy. A layout with room to breathe feels premium and easier to read.
Agree or disagree?

I've just put a new case study live.
Powermatic Technologies helps growing companies with strategy, design and software. I did the whole project on my own: the logo and identity, the design in Figma, the code and the copy on the site.
The site sits on a four-column grid, and you can see its lines on the screen. Graphite palette with no pure black or white, PP Neue Montreal, and a bit of ASCII art.
The page I'm happiest with is Careers. My first idea was to repeat the home page layout. I dropped it. Now the page opens with the open roles set in 72 px type, with a filter by team. A candidate sees the role, the city and the pay before they scroll.
The menu turns like a drum. You can drag it or use the arrow keys, and it opens on the section you're reading.
It's all hand-written HTML, CSS and JS, no framework. It holds up from a phone to an ultrawide monitor.
The live site is open, so you can click through it yourself.
Smart to show pay upfront.

Looks cool.
Weâve just released Amber House, a new real estate landing page template, now available on Webflow Marketplace.
Iâm exploring different niches at the moment. It helps me sharpen my skills, experiment with different visual styles, and design around the needs of each business and its audience.
Amber House combines architectural imagery, warm neutrals and expressive typography with practical features for homebuyers:
⢠Interactive floor plans to explore different layouts
⢠An availability table to compare homes, prices and status
⢠Clear paths to brochure requests and enquiries
⢠Responsive layouts for mobile browsing
Behind the visuals, weâve put just as much care into Webflow development, technical SEO and performance â with high Lighthouse scores to back it up.

Real estate is a great niche to practise on because the page has to do two jobs at once: feel premium and push visitors toward a viewing enquiry. Congrats on the Webflow Marketplace release, Amber House looks like a solid template.
