Every proof on this sheet actually runs.

Hold any plate below and it plays —
not a mock-up, the working theme.

We draw the whole thing — grid, type, colour, motion — then we build it in Liquid so it survives contact with a real store.

What this is

A small studio that releases a limited number of complete website designs each season. Fashion houses, pet brands, AI agencies, affiliate publishers. Each one is art-directed end to end rather than assembled from parts.

What you get

A finished Shopify theme: sections, schema, type scale, colour system, motion, and the copy that holds it together. Upload the zip, add your products, launch the same day.

Why it runs, not just sits

A screenshot hides how a site actually behaves. Hold any plate below and it scrolls itself, live, in the frame — so you're judging the thing you'd actually launch, not a still of it.

Watch it
run, full length

A thumbnail flatters everything. Pick a design from the list and the screen plays its entire page, top to bottom, at the pace a customer actually scrolls.

03 Anatomy of a plate No. 07 — Aurem

Aurem
fine jewellery

Built for objects that are small, dark and difficult to photograph. The layout gives each piece a room of its own: near-black stock, a single warm metal, and enough space around the product that the eye has nowhere else to go.
