Arclight — Concept Studio Portfolio (Fictional Studio)
Arclight isn't a real studio. This is a self-initiated concept project — a portfolio site I designed and built in Framer for a fictional 3-person product design studio, to practice building for a brand rather than an individual, and to learn Framer's CMS.
Unlike a personal portfolio, this project speaks in a collective voice ("we") and centers the studio's work and point of view — including a Journal section with dynamic, CMS-powered articles, and a short manifesto stating how the studio works.
Structure: Home, Work (case studies for three fictional clients), Journal (CMS collection with list), About (the team), Contact.
What can you add to your portfolio to make it a little more personal?
I love to write, and I've always kept a journal (often several on the go at once). I thought it'd be nice to add a work journal to my website so that my clients and colleagues can explore my processes and the messy inner-workings of my brain.
Have a look at: https://www.onyourtiptoes.com/journal and have a click through my highlights below.
It only took a couple of hours to build in Figma and Framer, but now the real challenge is keeping the entries going!
In spirit of building in public being more popular than ever, I'd love to see what you're making at the moment too. Let me know in the comments and we can share notes 💌
