A self-initiated demo. Daily florist with subscription + single-order retail. Forest / bone / coral, live SKU of the day, three subscription tiers.
§01 · Brief
A daily florist site that is half retail, half subscription — and reads like a quiet botanical journal, not a checkout funnel.
The demo brief: four-photo crossfade hero that rotates on slow interval, a live 'Today: [SKU]' tag that renders the current stem of the day, three subscription tiers for weekly / fortnightly / monthly, and a single-order path that accepts same-day bookings before a 2pm cutoff. Palette is forest-green against warm bone with a single coral accent. Built as a capability demo — no real client, no live payment rails.
§02 · Shipped
Four-photo crossfade hero
Slow interval, reduced-motion pauses on still; palette calibrated against the florist's ground bone tone.
Today-SKU live tag
A small ticker above the hero reads the current stem of the day from a single JSON source — one line to update per morning.
Three subscription tiers
Weekly / fortnightly / monthly; clear price-per-delivery, cancellation line, first-delivery window.
Same-day booking cutoff
UI fades the 'book for today' CTA after 2pm SGT, rolls over to tomorrow with a subtle timestamp.

§04 · Attestation
“A capability demo, not a commission — holds its palette under scroll, reads more like a journal than a shop.”
§05 · Outcome
§06 · Forward
The demo carries the tone — a real-client variant would plug in live Stripe, delivery scheduling, and a wholesale portal.
On engagement: Stripe-live subscriptions with pause / skip / swap, delivery-day scheduling (Tue / Fri), wholesale-only login for café accounts. Keeps the palette and crossfade, drops the mock data.
