Compact Grid Card shows eight projects in a four-column grid, each a square Placeholder thumbnail with the project name and year in a tight baseline row below. Years run from 2021 to 2025 and tabular-nums keeps the column of dates aligned. There is no role line and no tag set: the card trades detail for density so an entire back catalogue is scannable in one view.
Projects are one flat array. The square aspect ratio and the name-plus-year floor are the distinctive choice: anything more per card breaks the four-up rhythm and turns a tight archive into a list.
Reach for this block as an archive or all-work page where the count matters as much as the individual entries. The installer swaps the Placeholder tiles for real thumbnails and keeps the year column accurate.

Tip: four columns is the density sweet spot; going to five makes the names too short to be readable on mobile.
