The challenge

Where it started

Lumina's legacy platform suffered from high cart abandonment on mobile and an outdated visual language that did not match their premium product line. Three quarters of sessions were mobile. Less than a fifth of revenue was.

The approach

What we did about it

  1. 1

    Diagnose before redesigning

    Session replay, funnel instrumentation and eleven moderated usability sessions established where the money was actually leaking. Two thirds of abandonment traced to a four-step checkout and an unindexed product filter.

  2. 2

    Rebuild the critical path

    We collapsed checkout to a single scrollable step with a persistent order summary, moved the storefront to a server-rendered stack, and set a hard performance budget on every template touching the purchase path.

  3. 3

    Re-dress, then re-launch

    The new visual language raised product photography to the level of the products themselves, with generous whitespace, editorial typography and restrained motion. It rolled out behind a feature flag with a 20% holdout for four weeks.

The outcome

What changed

Achieved within the first quarter post-launch, alongside a 40% reduction in average page load time and a measurable lift in branded search volume.
