Sidewise is a dark, minimal portfolio template for independent designers, with sidebar navigation, project showcases, services, a store and a blog.
About template
Sidewise uses a dark interface with a persistent left sidebar and a spacious main content area. Its black and charcoal surfaces set off white headings and muted gray text, while warm, neutral project photography adds contrast. Large sans-serif headlines lead the page, followed by short supporting copy, buttons and compact project details. Rounded panels organize the introduction, work samples and service cards into clear sections.
The homepage opens with a designer profile and availability status in the sidebar, alongside links to Home, About, Work, Services, Store, Blog and Contact. The main area introduces the designer with a portrait, calls to action and summary figures, then presents selected projects in an image-led grid. Service cards follow below. The template suits independent designers and other solo creatives who want to present client work, services, digital products and writing from one personal website.
CMS collections support work projects, services, store products, blog articles and legal pages. Additional pages include About, Contact and a 404 page. Forms and interactions are included, and light and dark modes are designed for the site.
