"The best Shopify website designs combine ecommerce functionality with thoughtful aesthetic choices. When you design your site well, it’s easy to navigate, moves shoppers toward conversion, and delights customers with moments of joy.
"Rembrant Van der Mijnsbrugge, lead software engineer at the award-winning web design agency Mote, uses the concepts of ease, nudge, and delight to guide great designs.
“Once you’ve achieved the ease and the nudge, then there’s the optional goal of aiming for delight,” says Rembrant.

"Weston Table is a blog-turned-online store selling unique home and lifestyle products, some of which are vintage and antique. Founder Dianne O’Connor and the web design firm The Beauty Shop stayed true to the brand’s editorial roots when they developed Weston Table’s ecommerce site.
“I wanted to build an entertainment platform, not a transactional platform,” Dianne says on Shopify Masters. One way Dianne upped the fun factor was through photography.
"Dianne says you mostly see ecommerce products photographed against a white backdrop because the plain background makes it easy to find what you’re looking for, but “it’s not super entertaining.”
“We want to give up a little bit of that,” says Dianne. “Give people an imagination, and give them some inspiration on how they might think differently about how that product might be used or how it might function.”
"In addition to displaying lifestyle shots throughout the website, Weston Table includes illustrations. You can see these in the split navigation bar, a setup that separates the blog and ecommerce sections of the site.
"The Beauty Shop worked with Weston Table to create 300 pen-and-ink illustrations inspired by 19th-century engravings. In addition to showing up on Weston Table’s website, they also appear on proprietary products and printed books. Now, this editorial-style flourish has become a core component of Weston Table’s visual branding.
"While Weston Table infuses its site with an editorial vibe, the company doesn’t skimp on ecommerce features. There are easy-to-use wedding and gift registries. There’s also a reward program to incentivize customer loyalty and increase customer lifetime value."
