Overview
An editorial WordPress theme for boutique hotels and guesthouses — plaster, forest-green and brass, set in Cormorant Garamond over Karla. Deliberately a normal, sellable hospitality theme: the novelty is in layout and micro-interaction, not in reinventing the genre.
The signature is a room showcase built like a magazine table of contents: a sticky rail on the left lists every room, and as you scroll through the full-detail entries on the right, the rail tracks and highlights whichever room you’re reading, with click-to-jump navigation. Photography reveals use a soft organic clip-path expansion instead of the usual fade-and-rise. Room is a first-class custom post type — rate, size, occupancy, amenities — with a nonce-protected AJAX availability inquiry landing in a private admin inbox, and a one-click demo importer seeding a complete nine-room house.
