The context

The problem, people, and outcome in view.

The project needed to avoid becoming a generic merchandise store. Artists, events, cultural portfolio work, and product discovery needed to feel like connected parts of one identity, while editors and staff needed an operational path for maintaining artists, events, merchandise, and audience content.

The contribution

A clear view of what I owned.

From decisions to the working product.

Process

Yumesh owned approximately 80% of the full-stack implementation after taking over the project: the core frontend, backend workflows, CMS implementation, commerce, account flows, and continuous product refinement.

Solution

Artist, event, portfolio, and merchandise discovery experiences that connect public storytelling with the next appropriate customer action. CMS-backed artists, event records, event settings, portfolio work, products, and editorial content through Sanity. Event-detail flows for date, location, status, lineup, gallery, FAQ, sharing, ticket links, and related merchandise. Commerce with cart, persistent wishlist behavior, server-side product checks, Stripe payment intents, order verification, and customer order records. Authentication and protected customer/studio workflows using NextAuth and role-aware dashboard access. Brand-led light/dark themes, motion that responds to capability/reduced-motion constraints, loading treatment, and optional sound interactions. Error monitoring and test tooling.

The result

Proof over promises.

The source demonstrates payment-intent and order-verification code, not a verified live payment transaction. The case study must not claim live revenue, ticket sales, or audience outcomes without user-provided evidence.
