Marlowe
Marlowe is a light, editorial "quiet luxury" theme for boutique estate agents who want restraint instead of loud listing cards. An interactive map with hover pins lets visitors browse inventory geographically, while a scroll-pinned horizontal showcase presents featured properties one at a time as you scroll down the page. A Property custom post type structures price, beds, baths, and square footage alongside agent profiles, and curtain-style image reveals plus an AJAX valuation form round out the enquiry flow.

Overview
A light, editorial WordPress theme for boutique real-estate agencies and luxury property brokers — a deliberate counterpoint to the collection’s darker, louder themes. Warm paper, ink and deep forest green with brushed-brass detail, Spectral over Hanken Grotesk, and enough white space to let architecture breathe. The signature moments are quieter but no less technical: an interactive listings map with stylised streets and hover-preview pins, and a scroll-pinned horizontal “featured homes” showcase that translates through listings as you scroll.
Under the surface it is a complete property platform — a Property post type with price, beds, baths, square footage, status and address, plus Property-Type and Neighbourhood taxonomies, an Agent type with elegant monogram fallbacks, and Testimonials, all seeded by a one-click importer. The motion layer is refined rather than flashy: curtain image reveals, count-up statistics, magnetic buttons, subtle 3D tilt, a cursor ring and a scroll-progress bar, every effect disabled under prefers-reduced-motion. A working AJAX valuation-enquiry form stores requests in wp-admin and emails the agent.
