Design portfolio template

Created with insights from conversations with 20+ design managers at companies like Apple, Logitech, Huawei, Bang & Olufsen, LEGO and Jaguar.

Over 2 years as a freelance CMF designer, I interviewed with some of the biggest names in technology, automotive and design. Along the way, I refined the template with every insight and piece of feedback I got from the top design directors and hiring managers.

This portfolio template helps you communicate the most important part of your design work - the thinking process behind it. It helps you show that you don’t just create nice things, but solve real problems.

It follows a clear storytelling structure that turns every project into a mini-story that that takes the reader through your creative journey. You are not just showing a collection of images of what you created—you’re sharing your approach, your decisions and the impact of your work. Designed for visual clarity and coherence, this template makes it easy for hiring teams to understand how you work (and helping them to picture you on their team).

Ideal for CMF designers and anyone who wants to present their work and design process in a compelling way.

Stop guessing what hiring teams want. This template gives you a structured, effective way to showcase your work—so you can stand out and get noticed.
