Manage projects through a simpler CMS-driven structure
Projects are managed through CMS, which makes updating your portfolio much easier once the structure is in place.
You can replace project names, images, and content, and updates will automatically appear wherever those projects are connected across the site.
The template includes additional layout options for presenting projects, giving you more flexibility in how your work appears. This makes it easier to adapt the portfolio to different project types without rebuilding the structure from scratch.
Show your work in the format that fits it best. Project cards and project presentation can support both image and video-based content, making the template suitable for a wider range of visual work.
This template also comes with:
Complete Customization Guide
Launch Checklist
Mini guides inside the template for CMS editing and project layout setup
24/7 support

This template is designed to make project editing easier through CMS.
To get the best experience, projects should be edited through the intended CMS workflow.
It is flexible for customization, but larger structural changes to the Projects CMS setup may require more advanced editing.
Mike Bennet is built for designers who do not want to waste time on unnecessary complexity.
It gives you a strong visual foundation, keeps the focus on your work, and helps you get to a live portfolio faster with a cleaner customization experience.
