Based in Germany, our client is a distinguished furniture company specializing in creating and selling unique, handcrafted furniture made from reclaimed wood. Each piece is a testament to exceptional craftsmanship and the fascinating history of the materials used. The wood, sourced from the demolition of historic buildings, carries a soul and story of its own, featuring unique traits like saw marks, nail holes, and other imperfections that add character and individuality to each product. This commitment to sustainability not only reduces waste but also brings a touch of nostalgia and natural beauty into modern homes.

Our primary objective was to design an e-commerce store that would reflect the unique and high-quality nature of the company’s products. The design had to be minimalist to ensure that the furniture pieces remained the focal point, while also echoing the natural and rustic essence of reclaimed wood. We aimed to create a seamless user experience that highlighted the craftsmanship and story behind each piece of furniture.

The color scheme was inspired by the natural hues of wood. We used a palette of warm browns, beiges, and earthy tones to create a cohesive look that resonated with the brand’s identity. This choice not only provided a visually pleasing aesthetic but also reinforced the connection to nature and sustainability.
Each product page was designed to tell the story of the furniture piece. High-quality images showcased the unique features of the wood, while detailed descriptions highlighted the history and craftsmanship involved. We included close-up shots to capture the intricate details and imperfections that make each item one-of-a-kind.
