Projects
Projects that keep the workspace readable.
Use Projects to group work by product, team, or initiative โ with clearer structure, better permissions, and less root-level clutter.
Not everything should live at the top level.
One of the biggest problems with large Notion workspaces is that everything slowly ends up everywhere. Projects give work a home before the workspace becomes a maze.

Open when it should be shared. Private when it should not.
Make a project visible to the whole workspace or keep it restricted to the right people. Permissions should be understandable, not surprising.

Project access
Visible to everyone in Acme Studio. Anyone can read and contribute.
Better structure is only useful if people can feel it.
Reorder top-level items, favorite the places you use most, and keep the workspace easier to scan than a giant pile of pages and databases.
