Who the Design Portfolio template is for
If you are among designers, writers, marketers and portfolio-led applicants at studios and agencies, Design Portfolio is designed for exactly that. Creative layout for designers, architects, and UX professionals. Oversized decorative name, pipe-separated skills row, and awards section.
Why this layout works
Expressive layout with deliberate structure — distinctive enough to be memorable, still ordered enough to be read quickly.
ATS performance
Design Portfolio scores 80/100 in NextCV's ATS analyser. It favours presentation slightly more than the strictest ATS layouts, which suits roles where a human reads first.
At 80/100 it is the highest-scoring of the 3 creative templates in NextCV — 5 points ahead of Ink & Type at 75. Across the full 29-template library that is a mid-table score — deliberate, since this layout prioritises how it looks to a person.
Pricing
Design Portfolio is a premium template, unlocked with a single one-time purchase of ₹29 (down from ₹199) — not a subscription. Once unlocked it stays available across every device you sign in on, and exports carry no watermark.
Tip for the Creative format
Always include a portfolio URL near your contact details. For creative roles the work is the argument; the CV is the index to it.
Run the ATS check before you send it — the analyser flags missing keywords against the specific job description you are targeting.
