In this short and focused class, you’ll learn how to design a clean, two-page portfolio website using Figma, step by step, from a blank canvas to a polished layout.

This class is perfect if you:

Want to build a portfolio but don’t know where to start
Feel overwhelmed by complex UI tutorials
Want a simple, repeatable system you can reuse for any personal website

We’ll keep things intentionally minimal. No fancy animations, no complex components - just good structure, clear layout, and practical design decisions.

What you’ll learn:

How to structure a simple 2-page website (Home + About)
Setting up frames, grids, and spacing in Figma
Choosing basic typography and layout hierarchy
Designing a clean home page and content blocks
Keeping your design simple, readable, and portfolio-ready

By the end of the class, you’ll have a fully designed two-page portfolio website that you can customize for yourself or future projects.

This class is great for beginners, photographers, designers, developers, or anyone who wants a straightforward portfolio design without overthinking it.

No prior Figma experience required, just follow along and design with me.
