Contrast. A bright image on a near-black page reads like a print in a gallery, and nothing on the page competes with it. Work with a lot of white in it is the exception — that tends to float oddly.
Body copy, usually. Pure white text on pure black vibrates and is tiring to read. The sites that get it right pull both ends in — off-black background, slightly grey text.
Notable examples include Jason Bergh, Joshua Baker, Artiom Yakushev, Sofia Khegai and Nick Clement. These are just a few of the 29 dark portfolio websites in this collection, each selected for strong visual design and execution.
Frequently used typefaces include Inter, Geist Mono, Neue Montreal and Arial. Typography plays a key role in defining the dark aesthetic across these portfolio websites.
