WordPress Store Design

A WooCommerce storefront designed as one flow — and drawn inside what a WordPress build can actually publish.

WordPress gives you more freedom than a hosted platform, which is exactly why so many WordPress stores end up looking assembled rather than designed. The freedom is only worth something if someone decides what the store should look like before the plugins start deciding for you.

Designed for a real WordPress build
Arabic RTL laid out first
Homepage through to checkout

An Arabic supplement product page designed by Aya Elfeky — Arabic-first product interface work.

What you get

A store, not a stack of plugins

Every screen a shopper passes through, designed to belong to the same store.

The full purchase path

Homepage, shop and category pages, product page, cart and checkout — designed as one continuous journey rather than six separate pictures.

Drawn for a buildable theme

Laid out around how a WordPress theme assembles a page, so your developer is not quietly redesigning it to make it work.

Arabic RTL from the start

The Arabic layout is the first one drawn — numerals, forms and icon direction included, not mirrored at the end.

Mobile first

The phone layout comes first, because that is where almost every shopper in the region arrives.

The screens most stores skip

Empty search, out of stock, order confirmation and the account pages — the quiet screens where trust is won or lost.

A handover a developer can use

Source files, exports, and the spacing, type and component rules a WordPress developer needs to match the design exactly.

How it runs

Four stages, and you see the work at each one

Structure is agreed before any visual design starts, so nothing is a surprise at the end.

Discovery

Your products, your buyers, and what the current site gets wrong — before a single screen is drawn.

Structure

Wireframes for every template, reviewed with you, so the shape of the store is settled first.

Design

The visual layer applied across every page type, Arabic first and mobile first.

Handover

Files organised for a WordPress build, with the rules that keep the live site matching the design.

Selected work

Storefronts I have designed

Vitaroot — a supplement store built on trust

Muthlath — a wall-art store that stays quiet

Amany Store — a lookbook-led fashion storefront

At a glance

The practical details

Typical timeline

A focused storefront usually runs two to four weeks, depending on how many page types it needs and how quickly feedback comes back.

Also available on

Salla, Zid, Shopify, WooCommerce, OpenCart and Easy Order.

You keep

The editable source files, every export and the structure notes — all of it yours at handover.

Language

Arabic-first, with an English version built from it when the store needs both.

Every project is quoted after we talk. See how packages are put together.

Questions

About WordPress specifically

Do you build the WordPress site as well, or only design it?

I design it. The handover is written for a developer to build from, and I stay available through the build so the published site matches what you approved.

I am using Elementor. Does that change the design?

It changes what is realistic to build, so it is worth saying up front. The design gets drawn around the blocks your build will actually use, which is what stops it being watered down during implementation.

WordPress or Salla for my store?

If your customers are in the Gulf, Salla and Zid are usually the smoother sell — local payment, local shipping, and a checkout shoppers recognise. WordPress earns its place when you need unusual product logic or full control. There is a full comparison on the blog.

Can you redesign a WordPress store I already have?

Yes, and it is usually the cheaper job. We start from what is not working, keep whatever already earns its place, and redraw the rest.

Will the Arabic version look like a translated English site?

No — that is the specific thing this avoids. The Arabic layout is drawn first, so it is the English version that gets built outward from it.
