Project description
In close collaboration with its Tokyo-based team, we reconsidered Artek's online store for Japan. Based on our joint experiences with an earlier iteration, we designed and built a new component-based system. Artek Webstore Japan provides a fluid experience: It guides a discerning audience through coherent narratives. Our solution emerges organically from Artek's wide-ranging product portfolio, and provides simple ways to discover a large number of variants and customization options.
The site makes use of the updated capabilities introduced by Shopify in 2021. It provides unparalleled freedom of expression to the editorial team. A new verticality extends Artek's visual language, while our toolkit for building landing pages using native Shopify customization options, a store-specific journal and custom delivery options round out the platform.
