A clean, light shopping experience for MUNK

Inspired by the refined restraint of the MOHEIM store, this proposal keeps typography calm, spacing generous, and interactions understated. Product pages replace large thumbnails with elegant dropdown menus for variant selection, focusing the shopper on choice and clarity.

Key Principles

  • Typography-forward layout; light, airy rhythm
  • Dropdowns for variants everywhere thumbnails would be
  • WooCommerce‑native classes & hooks for seamless integration
  • Accessible, keyboard‑friendly controls

Products

Explore products via dropdown menus instead of thumbnails. Select options to surface variants and pricing, then add to cart.

WooCommerce implementation outline

Replace thumbnails with dropdowns (archive)

Remove the default product thumbnail on loop items and inject variation dropdowns with an add-to-cart button.

<?php
// functions.php
add_action('after_setup_theme', function() {
  // Remove thumbnail on archive loop
  remove_action('woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item_title', 'woocommerce_template_loop_product_thumbnail', 10);
  // Inject custom controls after title/price
  add_action('woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title', 'munk_store_variation_controls', 15);
});

function munk_store_variation_controls() {
  // Renders a template part that outputs variation selects + add-to-cart
  wc_get_template('loop/variation-dropdowns.php');
}
?>

Single product variant UI

Retain a single hero image if needed, but prioritize dropdowns over galleries. The same component can power both archive and single product.

<?php
// content-single-product.php (within your theme override)
remove_action('woocommerce_before_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_show_product_images', 20);
add_action('woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'munk_store_variation_controls', 25);
?>

Typography

Use a neutral, modern sans-serif (Noto Sans / Helvetica Neue) with light weights and wide tracking for headers to mirror the calm Moheim feel.

Classes

Keep WooCommerce class names like .woocommerce, .products, .product, and .add_to_cart_button so plugins and scripts continue to work.

Performance

Lean DOM, reduced imagery, and server‑side rendered selects ensure fast loads. Lazy-load a single image only when a variant is selected.

Scope & Deliverables

  • Theme overrides for archive and single product templates
  • Dropdown-first product card component + AJAX add-to-cart
  • Light, typographic style system and accessible focus states
  • Facet filters (Category, Material), ordering, search

Implementation Notes

  • Subdomain: store.by.munk.com (A/CNAME + separate cache rules)
  • WooCommerce 8+ and PHP 8.1+ recommended
  • Minimal plugins; rely on core hooks and template parts
  • Respectable defaults without images; optional progressive reveal
