Figma to Shopify Design & Development for a Premium Research Peptides E-commerce Brand
Biotera is a premium research peptides and therapeutics brand committed to providing laboratories and researchers with high-quality, scientifically validated compounds. The company needed an online storefront that reflected the precision, credibility, and professionalism of its products while offering a seamless shopping experience for customers.
Our team partnered with Biotera to design and develop a modern Shopify eCommerce website, starting with a complete UI/UX design in Figma before transforming the approved designs into a fully responsive and conversion-focused Shopify storefront.
The final result combines scientific credibility with premium aesthetics, intuitive navigation, and a scalable Shopify experience optimized for performance, user engagement, and future business growth.

The Challenge
Biotera operates within a highly technical and regulated industry where trust is everything.
The challenge wasn't simply building an online store—it was creating a digital experience that communicates scientific credibility while remaining intuitive for users.
The website needed to:
Present complex scientific products in a clear and understandable way.
Establish trust through a premium, professional visual identity.

Create a scalable Shopify architecture for future product expansion.
Balance educational content with strong conversion-focused design.
Every design decision was made with user confidence and long-term scalability in mind.
Discovery & UX Strategy
Before beginning the design process, we worked closely with the client to understand their business goals, customer journey, and product structure.
Our strategy phase included:
Competitor Analysis
User Journey Mapping
Information Architecture
Navigation Planning
Product Categorization
Content Hierarchy
Conversion Optimization Planning
This research helped establish a user experience that feels intuitive while supporting customer education throughout the buying journey.
Designing the Experience in Figma
Every page was designed from scratch in Figma, allowing us to create a consistent and scalable visual system before development began.
The design process included:
Low-Fidelity Wireframes
High-Fidelity UI Design
Desktop & Mobile Layouts
Component Library
Typography System
Color Palette
Button & Form Styles
Product Card Components
Checkout Journey Planning
Designing in Figma first enabled rapid collaboration, client feedback, and pixel-perfect approval before development.
Shopify Development
Once the designs were finalized, we transformed them into a fully functional Shopify store.
Development included:

Responsive Layout Implementation
Custom Sections
Product Templates
Collection Pages
Search & Navigation Optimization
Cart & Checkout Experience

Custom CSS Enhancements
Speed Optimization
The result is a Shopify storefront that closely matches the original Figma designs while remaining easy for the client to manage through Shopify's content management system.

The homepage was designed to immediately communicate Biotera's scientific credibility.
Visitors are introduced to the brand through a clean hero section supported by strong messaging and clear calls-to-action.
The homepage guides users through:
Featured Products
Company Overview

Easy Purchase Flow
The clean layout allows users to focus on essential product information without unnecessary distractions.
Design System
To ensure consistency across the website, we developed a reusable design system in Figma before implementation.
Typography
A bold, modern serif combined with clean sans-serif body text creates a balance between scientific authority and readability.
Color Palette
Deep green tones paired with soft neutrals reinforce trust, innovation, and premium quality.
Components
Reusable UI components including:
Buttons
Product Cards
Forms
Navigation
Badges

Layouts originally designed in Figma were carefully adapted within Shopify to ensure a consistent user experience across every screen size.
