Teanau

Teanau is a dark, moody portfolio for a product or brand designer, and it opens like the first frame of a film. A soft ember-orange glow spreads across a black screen, and "I'm Teanau and I'm a product designer" sits low and centered in Playfair Display, with a quiet Scroll for More prompt underneath. The navigation is a small dark pill at the top holding just the name and a dotted grid icon that opens the menu.

Sidebay Supply keeps the homepage focused on a handful of strong projects. Each one gets a wide image on the left and a serif caption on the right with the year, the project name, and the discipline, separated by thin rules, so a case like Shalan & Paul reads like an entry in a monograph. A View All button follows, then a large statement about the work with a short line of services beside it, from strategy to UI/UX. Service cards for Branding and Visual Identity sit on dark grey with small icons, followed by a pricing block and a FAQ of dark accordion cards. Project pages open on the title in serif above a large image with softly rounded top corners.

On a phone, the glowing hero and centered serif line carry over well, and the pill navigation stays compact at the top of the screen.

We'd pick Teanau for designers and art directors with cinematic, high-contrast work that suits a black background. The palette is unforgiving with bright or flat imagery, so curate the projects carefully. Because every link lives behind the grid icon, we'd also add a visible Contact link for visitors who won't open the menu.
