01Overview
A public online store for Carter, designed around a calm, premium visual language, and built so the catalogue could grow into real commerce, with a database, authentication and a backend behind it.
02The problem
Create an online store that looks as considered as the brand, is easy to browse, and doesn't need to be rebuilt the day real integrations arrive.
02The approach
Design the storefront and the data model together. Keep the interface restrained so the products carry the page, and lay down the backend foundation from the first commit.
03The build
What was actually built

A responsive storefront in Next.js and React, styled with Tailwind CSS.
