What’s your go to Shopify theme when you’re building a custom theme?
I always start with Shopify Horizon as the base, bolt on Tailwind CSS, and build from there.
I've built loads of custom theme's this way, its so much easier than buying a premium theme and trying to modify it. It also eliminates bloat and pointless blocks and functionality.
One day I'll get around to creating my own base theme but there's never time to even get started on that!
Nice work 👏

Most Shopify brands automatically jump to Klaviyo for email marketing.
But for this fashion project, we wanted something different.
Something cleaner.
More intimate.
More story-driven.
So instead of following the usual route, we designed this subscriber experience using Kit; and honestly, it came out fire.
The goal wasn’t just collecting emails.
It was creating a feeling the moment someone lands on the page.
From the soft editorial layout to the minimal typography and warm tones, every section was designed to feel like a fashion campaign, not just another signup form.
We focused on:
• A visually-led storytelling experience
• A clean lead capture flow
• A luxury fashion aesthetic
• Simplicity that still converts
What made it stand out was how effortless everything felt. No clutter. No aggressive popups. Just strong visuals, intentional copy, and a smooth subscriber journey that actually fits the brand identity.
Sometimes the best-performing designs come from trying something outside the “normal Shopify setup.”
And this was one of those projects.
