Most portfolio templates look polished.
But they're also forgettable.
While building Courtside, I kept asking myself:
What if a portfolio felt less like a collection of projects and more like a story?
That idea became a storytelling system built around the rhythm of basketball.
Not a basketball website.
A portfolio experience where every section contributes to a narrative:
🏀 The Seasons So Far — a career timeline inspired by a player's journey
🏀 The Playbook — a process section built around strategy and execution
🏀 Story-driven case study frameworks for both 0→1 products and redesign projects
🏀 A custom 404 experience that stays true to the theme
The goal wasn't to make another portfolio template.
The goal was to create something people would actually remember.
After weeks of designing, refining, and obsessing over details, Courtside is now live.
Would love to hear what you think.
