Template Overview and Tutorial

Gibson is a clean, fast, and striking portfolio template made for designers who want to look credible and start getting clients - today. It puts your work front and center, keeps navigation always visible, and gives you just the right set of polished components to launch in one day.

What makes it different

Work first: Projects appear immediately as you scroll; no fluff, just proof.

Bold, minimal aesthetic: Dark theme, confident typography, and a simple 4-line grid for crisp rhythm.

One-day launch: Fill the CMS, drop in visuals, adjust one accent color, publish.

Zero-maintenance touches: Availability component auto-updates to the current/next month.

Free to use: Duplicate and go - no paywall.

Key features

Customizable accent color - drag a single handle in the Assets panel to re-skin the site.

Side link bars - add your custom links that stay visible across the site.

Sticky navigation - follows the user down the page for frictionless browsing.

Parallax reveal - a subtle scroll effect that brings your work to life.

3D cube project cover - match cube color to each project via a CMS background color; looks premium, set up in seconds.

Modern media experience - Framer’s latest lightbox is built-in for smooth image viewing.

Sections you get
