A curated study of 20th-century elegance, archived for the discerning collector.
To keep that “Old-World Luxury” feel on a long scrolling page, here is a quick “Master Archive” Checklist to keep in your back pocket as you add items:
- Consistent “Breathing Room”
In luxury design, “white space” (or in your case, “parchment space”) is everything.
Use a Spacer Block (around 60px to 80px) between every single item.
This tells the viewer: “Each piece is important enough to stand on its own.”
- The “Curator’s Caption”
Instead of a big block of text, try putting the details directly under the photo using the Caption field or a small Italic H3.
Example: “A rare 1930s Silk Velvet Opera Coat. Private Collection, London.”
This keeps the focus on the photography while providing that “top-notch” scholarly detail you’re known for.
- Center Everything
For a long scrolling page, keep all your images and text Centered. It creates a very formal, “straight-down-the-middle” gallery path that is very easy for users to follow on both desktop and mobile. - Image Size
In the sidebar settings for your images, try to keep the “Image Size” consistent (e.g., “Large” or “Full Size”). This prevents the page from feeling “jumpy” as they scroll.
