About This Template

A split-screen personal site

Axel is the split-screen archetype — a full-bleed image on the left, a typography-led content rail on the right. Each page repeats the pattern with a different image and different right-side content, producing a strong, consistent visual identity across the whole site.

Built for solo creatives who lead with image

The layout is biased toward the image. Photographers, designers, art directors, illustrators, and creative directors who want their work or environment to be the first impression should use Axel. Right-side copy stays tight: a status pill, a single oversized headline, a sentence or two, and the next action.

Light single-accent palette

Neutral blacks and warm whites with one green status accent. The Allura brand mark sits over the imagery in white. Body copy is Inter; the bio signature is Style Script.
