Personal Portfolio
Crafting a sleek, intuitive portfolio site tailored for creative professionals to showcase their work and identity.
Wix Studio, No-code
Summary
MinimalResume is a clean, minimalist website template designed to help creatives present their portfolios with elegance and clarity. C3 was brought in to refine the layout, enhance user experience, and improve overall visual coherence- making it easier for visitors to connect with the creator’s identity and body of work.
Challenge
The original template felt too generic, lacked visual hierarchy, and didn’t effectively guide visitors through the portfolio. Users struggled to locate key sections like projects, skills, and contact information. Moreover, the design didn’t reflect the personal brand of the professional using it, undermining the portfolio’s impact.
Solution
C3 tailored the template to prioritize hierarchy and storytelling: reorganizing content sections, introducing clear navigation cues, and refining typography and spacing. We crafted a consistent visual system- colors, grids, and visual accents- that aligned with the creator’s personal brand. Finally, we optimized the responsive experience for seamless use across devices.
