Maya Romanoff

Maya Romanoff had a dated site, lacking modern e-commerce features technical advancements, but the bigger problem was that it wasn't telling their story. They make handmade wall coverings in the United States, backed by a rich history and an inspiring, passionate founder, but little of this was actually surfaced. They wanted to level up how their luxury wall coverings were represented and tell their story in a way that actually drew people in.
Maya Romanoff operates in an e-commerce space, but their customers are mostly interior designers, which makes this fundamentally a B2B business. That changed how I talked about materials and how I surfaced buying. Rather than pushing toward checkout, CTAs focused on discovery, learning more, showcasing the products, and ordering samples. Designers work through professional accounts rather than guest checkout, so the flow had to respect industry norms.
Their goal was to build relationships with designers and show them what's possible, supporting a long-term sales approach.
I designed a homepage that shows the depth of their legacy, while also drawing people into the diverse patterns and textures they produce. Starting with the hero, an immersive video pulls users into the rich textures they create and the handmade process behind them. From there I designed additional sections to tell different parts of their story and introduce the team, alongside inspiration galleries and carousels showing how the wallcoverings look in place, applied by working designers.
The product pages carried the most complexity:
Sorting and exploration needed real depth. The collections menu lets people sort by category, color, material, and collection. On the collections page itself, filters cover themes, sustainability, and other criteria, so it's easy to narrow down to exactly the right material. I also surfaced their library of inspiration on the homepage and gave it a dedicated Get Inspired page.
With so many content types — each with different components and fields — search was its own challenge. I wanted people to land in the category they were actually looking for, so the search page splits results into tabs for products, blog posts, and pages, displaying each according to its own requirements.
From the search modal, a fuzzy-search dropdown shows everything together, highlighting top results while listing other categories below.
They wanted sections that were reusable and behaved more like a page builder. Every block was built as a cohesive section that could sit next to any other and still hold up — I kept that in mind for every single one. To carry that into development, I prioritized well-made Figma components with interactive states and modes built out, so pages could be assembled quickly and with fewer errors.
Throughout the site, I prioritized accessibility, making sure text, buttons, and other elements met industry standards.
