A big product idea with a tiny online footprint

Three generations of South African tent makers had developed something special: a geodesic, modular, inflatable dome tent that could turn any patch of land into a home. Think ultra-fast setup, massive interior space, and rugged durability. It looked like something out of a high-end camping catalog, but there was a catch.

They didn’t have a website. Not a real one anyway.

Their online presence was limited to a rough idea, some studio photos, and a moodboard full of links to brands like Tesla, Heimplanet, and Mattsleeps. They weren’t just trying to sell a tent, they were building a lifestyle brand from scratch. But that ambition wasn’t showing up anywhere online.

Their goal: a custom WooCommerce website for their outdoor tent brand that would feel as premium as their product, run as smoothly as their tent setup, and convert curious outdoor enthusiasts into paying customers. They also envisioned a seamless outdoor adventure shopping experience that could captivate users effortlessly.

That’s where we came in.

“We’ve got one product, one logo, and a bunch of Pinterest tabs.”

TheWesCape founders had a clear vision and a seriously unique product. But they needed help transforming that vision into a custom WooCommerce website for their outdoor tent brand, one that didn’t feel like a tech demo or just another boring Shopify clone.

Here’s what we received:

  • A logo
  • Some product shots in a Dropbox folder
  • A Word document labeled “WEBSITE STRUCTURE_COPY”
  • Rough wireframes showing the sections they might want
  • Reference sites ranging from Tesla to chocolate brands to modular backpacks


So far, so good. But there were some real-world constraints:

  • They had just one product (a €2.000+ inflatable tent)
  • Their budget needed to cover both design and WooCommerce development
  • They were writing the copy themselves (eventually)
  • Hosting? Needed. Email? Maybe. SEO? Later.
  • Content had to be future-proof, they wanted to scale to multiple tents, stories, even blog content
  • And the vibe? “Modern, clean, outdoorsy, but not rustic. No nature clichés. No leaves. And the font should feel hip, not hippy.”


We set out to create a seamless outdoor adventure shopping experience, combining functional eCommerce design with an aesthetic that aligned with their modern, outdoorsy vision. Challenge accepted.

A WooCommerce site with a clear story and zero filler

The tent may have been modular, but the website needed to feel like a seamless experience, from the first scroll to the checkout button. This wasn’t just about listing products on a page. It was about building trust, communicating quality, and creating a custom WooCommerce website for an outdoor tent brand that made it incredibly easy for a customer to say, “Yep, that’s worth €2K.”

Step 1: we turned their notes into a real structure

We started with their outline and reorganized it into a lean, intuitive site flow:

  • Home: hero intro, product showcase, inflatability video, modularity features, heritage story, Insta grid
  • About: deeper brand story, inspiration, and design philosophy
  • Product: full WooCommerce page with price, specs, video, features, shipping info, and FAQs
  • Blog: overview + detail templates ready to launch
  • Contact: form + basic company info
  • Standard pages: cart, checkout, terms, account login


This meant no distractions, no buried features, and no long-winded pages full of fluff. Every section had a job, and we designed for conversion, ensuring a seamless outdoor adventure shopping experience.

WordPress design and development, done right

We built a custom WooCommerce website for outdoor tent brand TheWesCape, with WooCommerce powering the shop. All layouts were custom-designed in Figma and developed in WordPress for maximum flexibility. This approach gave TheWesCape team the freedom to manage their own content and products without needing developers every time they wanted to make a change.

Here’s how it all came together:

  • Product storytelling: Instead of a standard WooCommerce product page, we created a full landing experience, complete with specs, usage videos, zoomed images, and lifestyle content.
  • Inflatability video: A short demo video shows how easy setup is, making the concept of an “inflatable tent” instantly clear.
  • Modularity: Animated illustrations explain how tents can zip together to form multi-room setups.
  • Heritage block: A visual story highlights the three generations of South African tent makers behind the brand.
  • Call-to-actions throughout: Strategically placed buttons encourage users to buy, explore more, or follow on socials, ensuring a seamless outdoor adventure shopping experience.


This project showcases how thoughtful WordPress eCommerce development can transform an online store into an engaging, user-focused experience.
