Create an Image Grid for Notion Pages and Databases

Notion's image blocks don't support galleries or side-by-side layouts natively. A pre-composed grid gives you complete layout control, and looks far more professional than stacked image blocks.

Notion is the go-to for team wikis and project docs, but its image handling is limited: images display as full-width blocks stacked vertically. No native side-by-side or gallery mode.

A pre-composed grid solves this elegantly: product specs with wireframe + mockup + implementation in Strip of 3, meeting notes with 4 whiteboard photos in 2×2, onboarding docs with 3 key screens in one image.

Export at 1600px wide for Notion's content column: sharp on Retina, under 5MB free plan limit. For database galleries, use grids as cover images: a 1×2 before/after or 2×2 deliverables grid makes databases visually scannable.
