Modern Minimalist Shopify Store

I’m launching an online store and want a clean, modern-minimalist experience built on Shopify. The goal is for customers to land, browse, and check out without distraction, whether they’re on mobile or desktop.

You’ll take the project from blank theme to live site: selecting or lightly custom-coding a theme, configuring all core Shopify settings, and integrating secure payments, shipping (or instant delivery for digital items), taxes, and automated emails. Because the product range is still evolving, the structure must be flexible enough to add physical goods, digital downloads, or service bookings later without a full redesign.

Visual direction: plenty of white space, restrained color palette, crisp typography, and high-resolution photography blocks. Think Apple Store simplicity rather than loud banners. Speed and accessibility scores should remain high after launch.

Key deliverables:
• Fully responsive Shopify storefront with up to five template pages (home, collection, product, about, contact)
• Payment gateway and checkout flow tested end-to-end
• Basic SEO settings, metadata, and clean URL structure in place
• On-page CMS training notes or short Loom walkthrough so I can update inventory myself

Please factor staging vs. live environment, and set milestones for theme approval, core setup, and final hand-off. The finished site should be production-ready, scalable, and easy for a non-developer to maintain.
