OVERVIEW

Bringing heritage textiles to every doorstep.

Lifebox Store comes from a family with four generations in textiles, rooted in Kannur, Kerala, with more than 40 years in textile wholesale. They source sarees, salwar sets, kurtis, tops, bedsheets, anti-tarnish jewellery and bags directly from weavers and artisans across India. Wonderfolks Interactive designed and developed lifeboxstore.in so the family could take that legacy online and reach shoppers across India.

Goals

Understanding the goals and challenges.

The goal was an online store that carries the trust and personal service the family built over generations, and makes a large, varied catalogue easy to browse and buy from on any device.

1 / UI/UX DESIGN
2 / E-COMMERCE DEVELOPMENT
3 / MOBILE EXPERIENCE
The Challenges

A large catalogue, festive seasons and mobile-first shoppers.

Example
Large, Varied Catalogue

Sarees, churidar and salwar sets, kurtis, blouses, pants, bags, jewellery and bed linen all needed clear categories and filters.

Example
Festive Campaigns

Seasonal moments like Navratri and Onam needed banners and collections the team can update quickly.

Example
Mobile Shoppers

Most customers shop on their phones, so browsing, quick view and checkout had to work well on small screens.

Example
Trust at Checkout

Clear delivery terms, free delivery over Rs. 2000, multiple payment options and easy returns information.

Example
Personal Support

Customers can reach the team directly on WhatsApp, carrying the family's personal service online.

1/ STORE DESIGN

A storefront that feels as warm as the family store.

We designed a clean, image-led storefront that puts the products first, with hero banners for new collections and festive campaigns.

WHAT DID WE DO?

  • Shop by Category: Category tiles and collection pages for sarees, kurtis, salwar sets, jewellery, bags and home linen.
  • Product Discovery: Best sellers, new arrivals, quick view, wishlist and "shop this look" sections that help shoppers explore.
  • Mobile First: Layouts, navigation and product cards tuned for phones, where most orders start.

2/ SHOPIFY DEVELOPMENT

Built on Shopify so the team can run the store themselves.

We built the store on Shopify so the Lifebox team can add products, run sales and manage orders without developer help.

  • Catalogue & Collections: Products, variants and collections set up for a growing range across clothing, jewellery and accessories.
  • Payments & Shipping: Multiple payment options and delivery rules, including free delivery on orders over Rs. 2000.
  • Customer Touchpoints: Accounts, wishlists, newsletter sign-up with a first-order discount, and WhatsApp chat.
  • Policies & Trust: Clear shipping, returns and exchange, privacy and terms pages.
