Most everyone out there has gone through the struggles of building their portfolio site. And, if you haven’t, today’s the day to get going. It is crucial for professionals in our field to showcase their work and have an online presence. Although people are good at talking about themselves, it’s tough when it comes time to deciding on a design, a logo, and a site that describes your work and personality. I can personally say that I change my website at least once a year. This is why I always look at other people’s portfolios for ideas, inspiration and motivation.
Below is a list of website portfolios that I have tagged, bookmarked or mentally noted as being unique and innovative. If you are in the midst of putting together your portfolio, or looking for ideas to improve an old version, check out these examples below. If you are particularly proud of your site, feel free to add it in the comments. I’d like to build out this list as much as possible to get a comprehensive sampling of all different types of portfolio sites.
