Original promptArchitecture portfolio
Prompt

Design an architecture portfolio with split columns, quiet technical labels, monographic typography, and large project images that leave room for plans, dimensions, and process notes.

Remix promptvariant

Adapt the same architecture portfolio for a smaller studio. Reduce the technical density slightly, keep the split layout, and give the lead project photography more emphasis on the homepage.

Curator note

Architecture portfolios need restraint. The credibility comes from spacing, alignment, and drawing-friendly structure.

Output focus

A split first screen with project image and project data in balance / Room for plans, sections, and technical labels / A layout that feels exact without becoming sterile
