The idea

Build a Shopify theme for fashion products.

The starting store used standard Shopify pages. We developed a dark theme using street photography and custom catalog sections. Elev8Archives serves as the demonstration brand.

The theme was designed for reuse across fashion stores. Elev8Archives demonstrates its page layouts and product interactions.

Signature interaction / 01

Move a light across the product grid.

We built an illustrated flashlight effect for the product grid. The light follows the product in focus while the surrounding grid stays dark. The section supports touch screens. Store owners adjust the light colors in Shopify's theme settings.

Hover, focus, or tap a product to move the light.

The interactive preview demonstrates the lighting behavior. The Shopify section also includes an illustrated hand and flashlight beam around the product imagery.
