Thanks so much to everyone who recommended video-making tools the other day! 🩵
I haven’t had a chance to try them all yet, but I’m slowly incorporating them into my workflow!
I also posted a different version on X 👉 https://x.com/hikari_graphics/status/2089965979019485560?s=46&t=IoSMdHD1KvWU2kDD2EeimQ

🚀 I just launched LAND GRACE, a new Framer template for real estate developers and construction firms.
🌏 This is the Japanese version of the template. English version coming soon.
I wanted to build something that carries the quiet confidence Japanese corporate sites need — where trust matters more than flash.
It combines a corporate site and a recruitment site in one project: company profile, projects, news, employee interviews, job listings, and entry forms.
17 pages and 10 CMS collections, wired together so visitors keep moving — from projects to testimonials, from job listings to the people behind them.
The job listings page comes with a three-way filter — status, employment type, and role — and each job detail page automatically pulls in interviews from the same department.
My goal was to make hiring and brand-building live in the same place, without running two separate sites.
Hope it helps someone build something that lasts 🙌
Framer community, what tools do you use to create those beautiful videos showcasing your templates and work?
I’ve only used Jitter templates and added screenshots of my Framer templates so far. 💭
If you have any recommendations, I’d love to hear them 👉👈 I’d like to try something new for my next Framer template release!

I was a little worried that receiving an international payment might be complicated, but everything went smoothly and I was able to receive it without any issues. So happy! ✨ Thank you @Framer
✎﹏Hikari's Template Development Log.
I set out to create something substantial, with a lot of content and pages, and as a result, the finish line feels a little further away than I expected… But the Careers section is finally starting to take shape in the way I had envisioned. I think this could work well as a standalone recruitment website, too.
I want to spend plenty of time checking everything carefully once the template is complete, so it looks like this will take me through the end of this month. I had hoped to finish it last month, but here we are.
I'll be releasing the Japanese version first. All editable text, including layer names and component names, will be in Japanese. However, I also want to create a fully English version so that users outside Japan don't accidentally purchase the wrong version.
One step at a time. I'll get there!
✎﹏Hikari's Template Development Log.
This template is built around a real estate developer. It includes categories such as Office, Hotel, and Mixed-Use Developments, each with its own project detail pages. Every project also features client testimonials, and these pages are interconnected to encourage visitors to explore more of the site.
Next, I'll be working on the Careers section. There, I plan to connect job listings with employee interview pages in the same way, creating a seamless browsing experience.
Now that AI Agents are available, I'm less worried about adding a bit of complexity. As a result, this will probably become one of the most comprehensive templates I've created.
✎﹏Hikari's Template Development Log.
After exploring different layouts for the inner pages, I've settled on this one for now. It may still evolve as the design comes together.
The Careers and Project Detail pages will probably have their own layouts rather than follow this structure. I'll keep refining everything while looking at the balance of the site as a whole.
START FRAME was originally designed in Japanese and then translated into English.
I'd love to do the same with the template I'm currently working on. But after translating START FRAME and while working on this new template, I've realized something: I don't always know how a site looks from the perspective of native English speakers.
So when it's time to make an English version, I may ask the community for feedback again. Some parts might even need a different structure rather than just a translation.
I think I have a good sense of how to use English naturally on Japanese websites, but creating websites for an English-speaking audience is a different skill, and I'm still learning.
In that sense, I was actually looking forward to having one of my templates reviewed. It happened to be under review when Framer announced the update that removed the review process, so I never received any feedback. That's a little disappointing, but it is what it is.
I'm really grateful to the Framer community for helping me see things from perspectives I wouldn't have noticed on my own.
Whatever I'm creating, I want to approach it sincerely—for my users, and for my own growth as well.
A client asked about migrating a site with 100+ blog posts to Framer.
Instead of rebuilding the entire website, the blog will be integrated into an existing site. That means setting up 100+ URL redirects to preserve the current links.
Not long ago, that would’ve been a tedious task. Now it feels like an AI agent could handle it in minutes.
This is a template I'm currently working on. Posting it in the community is a great way to come back later and review it with fresh eyes.
Bar Showcase — a menu section for bars and restaurants.
Each item animates in individually as you scroll, and clicking a menu card opens a clean modal with full details. Hoping it helps give these sites a nice, high-end feel.
Check it out 🍸
I’m revisiting the site structure.
Just a messy sketch for now, but it’s kind of easier to share this stuff when there aren’t many Japanese people around here. ✍
I thought this community could be a nice place to document the journey, so I'll post updates from time to time. It might change dramatically before it's finished. 🙄
If you enjoy watching the ups and downs of someone's creative process, feel free to stick around and see where it goes.
As usual, I’ve started a new Japanese Framer template—aiming for something clean, simple, and versatile.
🚀 START FRAME — a Framer template for startups & SaaS
I originally made this as a Japanese-language template, hoping it might help grow the number of Framer users in Japan. Later, I expanded it into an English version for a wider audience.
One unexpected benefit is that it works exceptionally well with AI Agents. It enables batch updates across pages and generates new sections that match your brand’s tone and style. I believe this is possible because every detail of the template, including its internal structure, was carefully crafted by hand.
The Logo Gradient is really fun. I tried it with icons I made myself. They look cute and shiny, and I like the hover effect. I want to make a template with it, but I’m still thinking about what kind of theme fits best.
東京・名古屋を拠点とする税理士法人Amatria様のコーポレートサイトを、情報設計からデザイン、Framer実装まで一貫して制作しました。
法人税務顧問・会社設立支援・労務顧問・相続相談・確定申告の5つのサービス詳細ページを含む全16ページを構築し、税理士法人としての堅実さと親しみを両立したビジュアルに仕上げています。
I designed and built the corporate website for a tax accounting firm based in Tokyo and Nagoya, handling everything myself — from information architecture and visual design to Framer development.
The website consists of 16 pages in total, including five dedicated service pages covering corporate tax advisory, company incorporation support, labor advisory, inheritance consulting, and tax return filing.
I aimed to create a visual identity that balances the reliability expected of a tax firm with an approachable and friendly feel.
I also set up GA4, Google Search Console, and Microsoft Clarity to support ongoing analysis and continuous improvement after launch.
