Decofetchluxury furniture / production case study

Decofetch — a luxury furniture marketplace, built from scratch.

A fully custom designer-furniture marketplace — a server-rendered Next.js storefront over a Laravel API, a bespoke admin, and AWS infrastructure re-architected to cut cost.

The system

the systems we built.

01

Storefront — Next.js

A server-rendered Next.js storefront over a six-figure catalogue, built so every product and brand page renders for crawlers with JavaScript disabled. SEO is a first-class feature here, not an afterthought.

02

Commerce API — Laravel

A custom Laravel API at api.decofetch.com powering catalogue, search, brands and artisans, cart and orders — plus the customization, appointment and white-glove-delivery requests. No off-the-shelf store engine.

03

Bespoke admin

A custom admin for the catalogue — brands, artisans, materials, labels, dimensions and merchandising — so the client runs the marketplace day to day without coming back to us.

04

Media — S3 + Cloudinary

Product imagery served from Amazon S3 in London through Cloudinary transforms, tuned for quality and load time across thousands of high-resolution shots, with Vimeo for artisan films.

05

AWS infrastructure

Separate ECS services for web, API and admin behind a load balancer, with CI deployment pipelines — the re-architecture that cut infra cost by about 40% and made releases boring.

06

Feeds & discovery

Sitemaps, structured data and product feeds into Google Merchant Center, Pinterest and Meta — the plumbing that gets a luxury catalogue found, indexed and shopped.

Architecture

A production stack built for the work.
