For the last two years, I've been collecting design portfolios for inspiration across brand, UI/UX, motion, and illustration.

I thought I'd share them to help others struggling to put together their own.

So here it is, a design portfolio inspiration (mega) thread 🧵:

@heldiney £1.2m in your personal account 😮‍💨

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@nickclement @StudioBlackburn lovely

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@Dan_Sandison23 Not sure if Cafe Kick on Exmouth is showing the CL but could be an option

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@Jermainecraig Could it have something like ‘and counting’ in there so it seems ongoing as opposed to completed?

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@gray Paradise

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@Jermainecraig It's come under scrutiny before, but it's better than charities being opaque about how much they scrape from each donation to fund CEO salaries etc.

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@Jermainecraig I've always liked the model of 90/10. £1 of each £10 monthly donation goes transparently to operation. But operation is 0% profit and subscribers get something in return - like content.

@levelsio @jijosunny @JamesIvings @charlierward Yeah tbf as I said I'm a cynic, but more of the UK policy-wise.

Plus I'm looking to move, but to a more expensive city (Copenhagen) 😅

"Nice playground for the superrich!" - this will be our country slogan by 2030

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@levelsio @jijosunny @JamesIvings @charlierward Your original message said "if you can spend $10,000/mo+"

Earn vs spend are very different things.

$6k is higher than any salary I've ever earned here and I live well. Mortgage on a flat in zone 2, rent an office, out multiple times a week, holiday 5+ times a year

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@levelsio @jijosunny @JamesIvings @charlierward I'm growing more cynical of London/UK by the day but this is an exaggeration. $10,000/month would make you very comfortable here.

@jon_duffy @SarahDuggers I need to get that opengraph image fixed

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@BeerChannel Mammoth are doing some cracking beers

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@mikedotsullivan If you’re using Webflow or Shopify hmu

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

Recession announced.

British Gas 10x profits announced.

But don't worry, you can pick up this gem for only £800k.

@nicks_twt ha, no hate - i'm a product designer myself. AI is coming for us though 🤖

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

This is why AI will replace product designers first

[Nick @nicks_twt]

Keyboard shortcuts style. 👀✨
What style do you like more? A or B?

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@biron_io @peduarte Beat me to it!

[Jason Ford @jsnford]

@Wozza777 @mikedotsullivan I'd say plumbing is much more binary. my water either gets hot or it doesn't. the quality of a logo is a spectrum of subjectivity

@Wozza777 @mikedotsullivan a fixed boiler is a fixed boiler
