Not every directory needs to look like a traditional list of businesses or links. When your content is highly visual, images should be the main focus.

With Row.so, you can create visual directories for photography, real estate, portfolios, image albums, property listings, and more.

Choose from three gallery layouts — Grid, Slideshow, and Carousel — and create a directory that fits your content.

See an example: https://gallery.row.so

Create a Visual Directory with Gallery, Grid, Slideshow & Carousel



1. Grid

The Grid layout displays your listings in a clean and responsive gallery.

It's ideal for:

    • Photography directories
    • Image collections
    • Real estate listings
    • Product showcases
    • Creative portfolios

    Visitors can quickly scan multiple images and discover the listings they are interested in.

    2. Slideshow

    The Slideshow layout puts the spotlight on one image or listing at a time.

    This works especially well for:

    • Photography galleries
    • Property showcases
    • Image albums
    • Design portfolios
    • Featured listings

    The Carousel layout allows visitors to browse through multiple listings horizontally.

    Use it for:

    • Featured properties
    • Portfolio projects
    • Image collections
    • Property listings
    • Curated directories

What Can You Build?

Gallery layouts make Row.so suitable for many image-focused directory ideas.
