Optional detail on approach and methodology
Product catalog hierarchy
Building product websites require clear categorization to support comparison and decision-making. Products were organized by category and use case rather than internal inventory logic, reflecting how builders evaluate materials.Mobile-friendly product browsing
Mobile-first considerations ensured product information remained readable and accessible during site visits or jobsite research. Spacing, typography, and layout were optimized for scanning across devices.Long-term maintainability
A modular catalog structure supports adding new products without redesign. Shopify’s product system enables efficient updates as the catalog grows.
