Vesper — Dark Designer Portfolio Template (HTML + Tailwind CSS)

Vesper is a premium, ready-to-launch portfolio for independent product & interface designers, freelancers and small studios who want a site that looks expensive without hiring an agency.

The whole page is lit like a desk lamp at dusk: a warm-charcoal base, a single amber accent and a signature glow that follows the cursor behind the hero. It feels art-directed and human — not another purple-gradient template.

What you get:

- 11 distinct, screenshot-worthy sections — sticky nav, hero with a warm portrait + floating stat, about, client logos, a services accordion, a marquee + editorial toolkit (no cheesy percentage bars), a filterable work grid built from clean CSS device mockups, testimonials, a journal/blog grid, a big contact block and an outlined-wordmark footer.

- Re-theme from one place. Every colour, font and space is a token in src/input.css — change one amber variable and the whole site follows.

- Self-hosted fonts (Syne · Hanken Grotesk · Space Mono) — no Google CDN, fast and offline-friendly.

- No build step to deploy. Compiled, minified CSS ships in the box; open index.html or drop the folder on any static host.

- Accessible & fast: WCAG AA contrast throughout, full keyboard support, prefers-reduced-motion honoured, Lighthouse 95+/100.

- Documentation included + clear comments so you can swap copy and images in minutes.

Built with static HTML + Tailwind CSS v4 and a few KB of vanilla JS. No framework, no dependencies at runtime.
