![]() Therefore, a personal website that includes your portfolio can be great, but it can also be very expensive to build one from scratch.įurthermore, there is the added benefit of finding like-minded individuals in an online community of designers. But when you’re a designer, you must also display your talents through your website. The key elements of any portfolio website include the basics such as your name, images, links, and contact details. Within, you have the ability to make folders and organize your many sites and projects.The best portfolio websites are the ones that keep it to the point. U.cargo™Lastly, we have a new area, related but outside the Design Lab, called “u.cargo.” This is an overview area to show all of your sites. To quickly help with simultaneously having a portfolio, client presentations, design boards, shops, etc., etc. The idea is to assist studios / artists / designers in getting to multi-site representation faster. The rows labeled “Studio Kit” are a collection of both dense and lightweight site templates - organized out of the rest of the Design Lab. The Studio Kit™ (The Multi-Site Concept)The “Studio Kit” is a concept / model to help a studio / artist / designer develop a multi-site scenario. (Note: Most sites and elements have a “duplicate” button). ![]() Even a font specimen can be a starting point from which to build a site. ![]() ![]() That is, use a template straight away, or assemble (copy/paste) from various design elements, or mix and match (copy/paste design elements into an existing template or site).Īs well, with the Design Lab, a site can pretty much start from anywhere. The Design Lab was developed with flexibility in mind - flexibility in starting a site and flexibility as to how one can piece together a site. There are many different styles of templates - from deep portfolio, shops and presentation-type sites, to quick bio/profile, flyer/announcement and drop-shop-type sites. (There are also rows for design-research/inspiration as well as how-to type videos/articles.) The Design Lab is essentially a collection of rows of either templates or design elements. We are calling this tool/area The Design Lab™. The Design Lab™With the ability to have multiple sites of different purposes, comes the need for a flexible and multifaceted design tool. All accounts have 1 free custom domain connection (connecting additional custom domains is priced at $2/mo when billed yearly or $3/mo when billed monthly).Īll accounts have the ability to make unlimited public sites using “cargo.site” domains (as in:, ,, etc.) - again this comes with no increase to pricing.There is only one price for Cargo: $14/mo (when billed annually, or $19/mo when billed monthly). Most of us need a portfolio, as well as client presentation sites, idea boards, shops, etc. Being artists and designers ourselves we know that single site representation is simply not enough. We hope that it is understood that the decision to develop Cargo this way, is (sincerely) to give artists and designers (and their studios) more power to represent themselves. There is no change in price whether you have 12 sites or 1 site. Single Site or Multi-Site PublishingAll Cargo accounts allow for having multiple public sites. All in real-time (think Google Docs with all the design possibilities of Cargo). That is, you can build/edit/update a site with members of your studio/team or with a client or whomever. Solo or Multi-User EditingA site can be built/edited/updated solo, or with ( pretty much) any amount of collaborators. We have developed it this way with the budgets of artists and designers in mind. Simultaneously publish a portfolio, client presentations, idea boards, a profile site, a shop - basically any kind of site you need - all with a single account. There is (of course) single portfolio type use - but you can also design and publish a whole group of sites, each with its own purpose. One price, no tiers or hidden price stackingĮdit & Publish using the Design Lab™ and the Studio Kit™ĬARGO is a site builder designed to meet the various needs of creative professionals.
