Core Patterns

Three layouts that rule mobile commerce

Research shows layout choice alone affects scroll depth by up to 38%. Choose the right pattern for the right context.

2-Column Grid

Perfect for product listing pages. Maximizes visual density while keeping product images large enough to trigger purchase desire.

Best for PLPs

Horizontal List

Full-width rows with thumbnail left, product info right. Ideal for comparison-heavy categories where specs matter more.

Best for Comparison

Single Column

Full-width cards for featured products, editorial content, or limited-edition drops. Demands attention and drives focus.

Best for Featured

Responsive design adaptation across devices

Responsive Adaptation

Design once, adapt everywhere

A true mobile-first layout begins at 320px and gracefully expands. We never shrink a desktop layout — we grow a mobile one.

📐

Fluid Typography Scale
Text scales with clamp() — readable at 320px, elegant at 1440px.
🔲

CSS Grid Intrinsic Design
auto-fill and minmax() create naturally responsive grids without breakpoints.
📦

Container Queries
Components respond to their container width, not viewport — truly composable.

Scroll Patterns

Scroll is the mobile UX engine

Unlike desktop where users click to navigate, mobile users scroll to discover. Design scroll experiences with infinite delight.

Infinite Scroll

Load content in 20-item batches triggered at 80% scroll depth. Never paginate a mobile product list.

Horizontal Carousel

Swipeable product rows with momentum scrolling for category browsing. 40% more products discovered.

Sticky Filter Strips

Keep filters visible as a horizontal chip strip pinned below the header during scroll.

Scroll-Snap Galleries

CSS scroll-snap-type for product image galleries creates native-app feel with pure CSS.
