Interior design portfolios

As an interior designer, the best way to display your work is by inviting viewers into the spaces you’ve crafted, allowing them to take in the lighting, textures, scale, and ambience. But for the times that you can’t show your work in person, it’s important to have a professional online portfolio.

Additionally, it creates a portfolio website that’s easy to maintain, as getting back to the website for future changes and revisions becomes much simpler.


The ‘About’ page introduces both the firm’s founder, Nildo José, and vision. It also familiarizes visitors with the firm’s complete team of architects, mentioning each by name and in a professional-looking group photo.

Entering the interior design portfolio of Canadian designer Amanda Shields feels like stepping into a cozy, beautifully-lit living room. We’re welcomed with a photo of one of her projects that fills the screen almost entirely except for a white header.


The header features Amanda’s logo, clearly presenting her name and specialty. The logo is then repeated throughout the website in its abbreviated lettermark version. This versatile type of logo helps serve different needs, depending on the context in which it is used.


The portfolio also details Amanda’s different services, with billing and plan options for each one. This practice can help potential customers get a clear sense of the services that they’re looking for early on.

How to create an interior design portfolio


An interior design portfolio is a showcase of your work, vision and expertise meant for potential clients, managers and collaborators. It’s therefore important to go about creating one in the right way.


For starters we recommend peeking into other types of art portfolios as well, such as illustration portfolios or animation portfolios, for some more ideas.


Then you'll need to consider the following:



Select the right format


While physical portfolios use to be hugely popular and still have merit in the world of interior design, it's not uncommon for most designers across a range of industries, to build an online portfolio. An online interior design portfolio is easier to share, doesn't need to be carried around, can be shared with multiple potential candidates and generally lead to more exposure of your work. It's also easier and quicker to add new projects to it and to update.


But consider both your own professional needs and your audiences — are they likely to respond better to an online portfolio?


Once you've chosen your format, think carefully about the design of your portfolio — the theme colors, typography and style. It's important to keep this consistent throughout, think of it as part of branding your style and work.



Choose the right portfolio website builder


You need to to opt for a website builder like Wix that includes professional portfolio templates, free web hosting, the ability to buy and register a domain name, robust website infrastructure and enterprise grade web security.


Get started with these graphic website templates.



Prioritize your visuals


Focus on showing off your work in high resolution and quality images. Combine professional photoshoots of your projects with relevant images to enhance the understanding of your designs. These could be anything from a mood board to a hand-drawn sketch, before-and-after shots or a 3D rendering of the space.


Showcase your designs and the why behind them


Clue site visitors in on the backstory behind your designs by writing short case studies and including your mood boards, sketches and anything else relevant from the whole design process. Mention the location, brief, dates and any other information that can be relevant or that makes the project unique. Credit any collaborators who took part in the project, or the photographers who shot the images.

Remember to focus on quality over quantity — showcases the interior design projects that really reveal your experience and expertise. You might want to highlight unique design projects or those that were particularly tricky but successful.


Your portfolio should never be finished, make sure to update it all the time with new interior design projects.



Detail your services and offer online bookings


Whether you operate as a freelance designer or have a detailed interior design business plan, make sure to elaborate on your different package plans and clearly mention pricing for everything from consultation to home styling to space planning. You can also encourage site visitors to book your services directly on your site by setting up an online booking system, which works for different types of websites.


Include testimonials, press and awards


People are more inclined to form a positive opinion of your services if they know that others think highly of it. Share clients’ positive experiences of working with you and add any press coverage or awards that you may have received.


Introduce yourself


While making an online design portfolio is first and foremost about the work, getting to know the person or people behind it is no less important. Share a bit of your professional background, experience and education, and the values or principles that guide you in your designs. Include a photo (headshot) of yourself or your team, and add in contact details and social media links.
