You’ve spent valuable time developing your style, building your portfolio, and growing your art into a real business. The last thing you need is a website template that was clearly designed for someone else. This Showit template for surface pattern designers is build with an understanding of repeating patterns, collection-based portfolios, and what a licensing partner or custom design client actually needs to see. Trella was designed specifically for surface pattern designers and artists who are ready for a website as intentional and beautiful as their work.
Perfect For…
Trella is made for you if you are:
- A surface pattern designer ready to attract licensing opportunities and custom design clients
- An artist or illustrator who wants a portfolio that actually showcases collections, not just individual pieces

- Someone who values pixel-level design control and is comfortable in creative software (Showit will feel immediately familiar)
- A pattern designer who has been searching for a template that just gets what you do

Why You’ll Love It
It was built for your portfolio, not retrofitted for it. Most website templates treat a portfolio like an afterthought, a grid of images dropped onto a generic layout. Trella is designed around the way surface pattern designers actually present their work: collections, repeating patterns, lifestyle imagery, and the story behind the art. Your portfolio will feel engaging and immersive, not like a static PDF.
The design control will feel completely natural. Showit’s drag-and-drop canvas works a lot like Adobe Illustrator. Pixel-level precision, complete layout freedom, no code required. If you have spent time in creative software, you will feel right at home. You can move anything, adjust everything, and make it look exactly like your brand.
The mockup bundle does the heavy lifting for your portfolio. Twenty-six Photoshop mockup files designed specifically for repeating patterns: fabric drapes, wallpaper installations, stationery flat lays, all in a lifestyle aesthetic that matches the tone of the template. Drop your art in, save, and you have a polished portfolio image ready to publish. No photographer, no product inventory, no problem.
It is structured to attract licensing partners and custom design clients. Trella includes dedicated pages for licensing and custom design work, with sections that help potential partners understand what it looks like to work with you, what your process is, and what to expect from pricing. The information is laid out in a way that is easy to scan and built to convert browsers into inquiries.
It will get you online faster, and looking better than you expected. Whether you have been putting off your website for months or you are in the middle of a rebrand, Trella gives you a beautiful, SEO-conscious starting point that shortens the distance between where you are and where you want to be. Every page flows intentionally to the next, keeping visitors engaged and guiding them naturally toward working with you.
Your work deserves a website that can actually keep up with it. Trella is ready when you are.
