Gearshop – Automated Ecommerce for Scalable Operations
The Atmos Gearshop: An e-commerce store for a drone manufacturer, designed as a marketplace for selling merchandise and for resellers to stock up on product parts. My goal was to create a platform that embodies Atmos’ “adventure–outdoor–explorer” aesthetic, following a grid-inspired layout that reflects the core concept of flight mapping lines. Due to limited resources, I eventually developed a simplified version using Shopify, accomplishing the core function—Atmos' B2B customers can now seamlessly stock up on spare parts and drone accessories.

Reflection
Taking responsibility for the realization of a company’s complete e-commerce store—I felt honored. This was the first project where I took the lead, not only in design but also in the development of the shop itself. My responsibilities extended beyond visuals, including the implementation of automated global B2B invoice generation. What I appreciated most about this project was the challenge. I learned many things on the go and got involved in a wide scope of tasks that need to be considered before launching a project like this. However, it also gave me a more realistic view of product development. For example, I spent considerable time designing an optimized checkout flow, only to end up using Shopify’s default version due to time and resource constraints. That was frustrating. Still, this experience was incredibly valuable. It taught me not only how to adapt and make trade-offs but also how important it is to align design ambition with practical feasibility.
