02Approach

A shop that reads like a catalogue

Velar is a self-directed Ecommerce build for a specialty coffee roaster. The goal is a store that feels closer to an editorial magazine than a standard product grid.

A serif display system, generous white space and photography carry the weight, running on Webflow Ecommerce so products, prices and collections stay CMS-editable.

03Ecommerce CMS

Every bean, one template

Products, prices, tasting notes and brew ratios are all CMS fields, with cart and checkout wired through Webflow Ecommerce. One product template renders every coffee.

04Product page

Built for how people buy beans

Coffees are grouped by flavour and brew style, not just origin. The product page pairs real bag photography with size variants and CMS fields for tasting notes, origin, process and brew guidance.
