Customer journey: registration, login, homepage, product search, product details, add to cart, checkout, payment, order confirmation, shipment tracking, delivery, review. Guest checkout is supported alongside registered customer checkout, and the storefront provides recently viewed products, responsive product listing grids, and easy-to-use filters and sorting.

Seller journey: seller registration, business verification, store creation, product listing, inventory management, order received, order processing, shipment, payment settlement.

Administrator journey: admin login, dashboard, seller approval, product approval, order monitoring, payment monitoring, commission management, reports and analytics. System configuration covers general settings, payment gateway configuration, tax configuration, shipping configuration, and security and access management.

5. Core User Flows

Page 28 of 52

5.1 Customer browses, searches, and evaluates products

Trigger: customer opens the storefront (homepage, category, subcategory, or search results page).

  1. Customer lands on the homepage — promotional banners, category navigation, featured products and deals, best-selling and recommended products — and navigates into a category or subcategory, or enters a query on the search results page (search by name, keyword, SKU, or brand, with suggestions and autocomplete).
  2. Customer applies advanced filters (category, price, brand, rating, availability, attributes) and sorting (price, popularity, newest arrivals, ratings) on responsive product listing grids, then opens a product details page to review image galleries, descriptions, specifications, variants (size, color, material), SKU/barcode, pricing and discounted pricing, and related/recommended products.
  3. Customer optionally adds items to the wishlist (My Wishlist page) or to a product comparison set; recently viewed products and personalized recommendations persist for later sessions.
  4. Result: customer has a shortlist of products; wishlist and comparison contents persist.

Branch: no matching products — the listing/search page shows an empty result state and the customer can broaden filters or return to categories. Loading states and skeleton screens cover slow responses.

Page 29 of 52

5.2 Customer places an order and completes payment

Trigger: customer decides to buy from the cart.

  1. Customer adds products to the cart and opens the shopping cart page to adjust quantities or remove items, applying coupon codes; taxes, discounts, and shipping charges are calculated.
  2. Customer proceeds to checkout as a guest or registered customer, selects or adds a delivery address (multiple addresses supported, with delivery serviceability checks and estimated delivery dates), and chooses a payment method.
  3. Product stock is validated before order placement; customer completes payment, which is verified and tracked as a transaction.
  4. Result: order is created and the order confirmation page is shown; the order appears in order history (My Orders page) and enters the lifecycle Pending → Confirmed → Processing → Packed → Shipped → Out for Delivery → Delivered, with status notifications.

Branch: payment fails or is abandoned — the order is recorded as a failed payment and the customer remains at payment selection to retry or choose another method. Branch: address missing — customer adds a new address before continuing. Branch: stock unavailable at validation — customer is prompted to adjust the cart.

5.3 Customer tracks orders and shipments

Trigger: customer opens order tracking or order history.

  1. Customer views order history, opens an order details page, and follows shipment status on the order tracking page, using the tracking ID and synchronized delivery status.
  2. Result: customer sees current processing and shipment status for each order.
Page 30 of 52

5.4 Customer cancels an order or requests a return/refund

Trigger: customer decides to cancel or is dissatisfied after delivery.

  1. Customer opens the order details page and initiates cancellation, or submits a return, replacement, or refund request with the reason, referencing the Return and Refund Policy and Shipping Policy pages.
  2. Seller reviews and handles the request; administrator can intervene on payments, refunds (including partial refunds), and disputes.
  3. Result: the request status is visible to the customer in order history; refunds are processed through the payment and refund management path.

5.5 Customer submits ratings and reviews

Trigger: customer has received a product.

  1. Customer opens the product reviews and ratings page from the product or order and submits a rating and review.
  2. Result: the review is recorded against the product and shown to other shoppers.

5.6 Customer manages account, addresses, and preferences

Trigger: customer opens the account area.

  1. Customer registers or logs in via email, mobile number, or social authentication, completing OTP verification where required; forgotten passwords are reset through the forgot/reset password flow.
  2. Customer uses the account dashboard to edit personal information, maintain the address book, manage saved payment methods, and set notification and communication preferences.
  3. Result: profile, addresses, and preferences are updated and reused at checkout.
Page 31 of 52

5.7 Customer seeks help and support

Trigger: customer has a question or problem.

  1. Customer opens the Help and Support, Contact Us, or FAQ page, or reviews the Notifications page for updates.
  2. Customer submits a query or finds a self-service answer.
  3. Result: the query reaches support handling; the customer can follow the response through notifications.

5.8 Seller registers, verifies, and sets up a store

Trigger: a business wants to sell on the marketplace.

  1. Seller registers (Seller Registration) and completes business verification (Business Verification).
  2. Administrator reviews the application and approves, rejects, suspends, or deactivates the seller.
  3. Approved seller signs in (Seller Login), creates the store, and configures profile and store settings (Store Profile Management).
  4. Result: an active store is available on the marketplace.

Branch: rejected or suspended — the seller cannot publish products until the administrator reinstates the account.

Page 32 of 52

5.9 Seller manages products and inventory

Trigger: seller needs to list or update catalog items.

  1. Seller adds, edits, deletes, or publishes products (Add New Product, Edit Product, Product Listing Management), assigning categories, variants, pricing and discounted pricing, SKU/barcode, specifications, descriptions, and image galleries; bulk upload is available for larger catalogs.
  2. Seller maintains stock through Inventory Management and organizes categories and variants.
  3. Result: published products become browsable and searchable by customers; inventory levels reflect availability. Orders preserve historical product prices, descriptions, and seller information even if the product changes later.

5.10 Seller processes orders and shipments

Trigger: a new order includes the seller's products.

  1. Seller views incoming orders (Order Management, Order Details) and advances processing and shipment statuses (Shipment Management), creating shipments and generating tracking IDs.
  2. Result: status changes propagate to the customer's order tracking and order details pages.

5.11 Seller handles returns and refunds

Trigger: customer submits a return or refund request.

  1. Seller reviews the request (Return and Refund Management) and approves or declines it, coordinating with the administrator where payment or dispute resolution is needed.
  2. Result: the outcome is reflected in the customer's order history and in refund processing.
Page 33 of 52

5.12 Seller reviews sales, commissions, and payouts

Trigger: seller reviews performance or settlement.

  1. Seller opens sales analytics and revenue reports and tracks commissions, settlements, and payouts (Commission Details, Payment and Settlement Management).
  2. Result: seller sees revenue and settlement status against administrator-configured commissions.

5.13 Seller manages queries, notifications, and account settings

Trigger: seller receives a customer query or needs to adjust account details.

  1. Seller responds to customer queries and reviews seller notifications and support.
  2. Seller updates account settings.
  3. Result: queries are answered and account configuration is current.
Page 34 of 52

5.14 Administrator governs the marketplace

Trigger: administrator signs in to the centralized admin dashboard.

  1. Administrator manages customer and seller accounts, including seller approval and suspension.
  2. Administrator manages products, categories, and attributes, and monitors and manages all marketplace orders.
  3. Administrator configures commissions and seller payouts, manages payments, refunds, and disputes, and runs promotional campaigns and discount coupons (including percentage-based discounts).
  4. Administrator manages banners, homepage content, and featured products, configures shipping providers and delivery rules, generates business reports and analytics, and maintains system configuration — payment gateway, tax, shipping, and security and access management — plus permissions and audit logs.
  5. Result: marketplace configuration and content changes take effect across the customer-facing site and seller operations.

These journeys are independent entry points; customers, sellers, and administrators may start any of them without a fixed sequence, subject to the access rules in the detailed requirements. Every screen in these journeys is connected to the backend APIs and implements its business logic; navigation links, buttons, forms, and actions have defined behaviors, and no required screen is a placeholder or disconnected static design.

6. Visuals Colors and Theme

[Design proposal; unspecified choices are defaults.]

The visual system follows Rasmus Andersson: systematic product craft with a point of view—warm paper, graphite ink, and a scarce tangerine signal. Customer surfaces use page ground #F6F3EE, white surfaces #FFFFFF, graphite text and primary actions #17181A, muted metadata #6E6A63, hairline borders #E4DFD6, and tangerine accent #E4572E. Teal #1F7A6B marks in-stock/success only and amber #C98A00 warnings only; blue or indigo is never a functional colour. Seller and admin chrome uses #141517 ground, #1C1D20 surfaces, #F2EFE9 text, and the same tangerine signal.

Headings use Space Grotesk at 500–700 weight with -0.02em to -0.03em tracking, sentence case except 11px uppercase micro-labels at 0.08em. Body and dense interface copy use Inter Tight. Prices, ratings, order totals, and dashboard KPIs use tabular Space Grotesk figures so columns align. Type scale: display clamp(40px, 6vw, 88px), H1 clamp(30px, 4vw, 48px), H2 clamp(24px, 3vw, 32px), H3 22px, body 16px/1.55, dense table and card metadata 14px, labels 13px, captions 12px, micro-labels 11px.

Use an 8-point spacing rhythm, a 12-column grid, 24px gutters, a 1280px maximum content width, and 32px side padding (16px at 375px). Buttons and inputs use 6px radius, product cards and panels 10px, modals and the hero promo block 14px. Prefer precise 1px hairlines over shadows; reserve 0 1px 2px rgba(23,24,26,.06) for dropdowns and sticky headers. Avoid pills except status chips, gradients, glass, blobs, oversized shadows, and decorative stock imagery.

Page 37 of 52

The responsive customer entry uses a sticky black utility bar (delivery pin, account, wishlist, cart count), a white search header with category mega-menu, a 4-up category rail, a 2:1 promotional banner, and dense product rails at 4/2/1.5 cards for 1280/768/375. Seller and admin portals share a 248px dark sidebar with grouped nav and 11px section labels, a 56px header with search, notifications and avatar, and a paper content canvas. Product cards use 1:1 or 4:5 product photography with a 1px inner border, seller name in 12px muted, 18px tabular price, struck-through MRP, tangerine discount chip, 5-star glyph row with review count, and a hairline footer with wishlist and quick-add. Product detail splits gallery left and buy-box right with price, rating, seller, delivery estimate, and one tangerine CTA. Imagery is optimized and lazy-loaded; readable text and controls stay whole within the viewport at 375px, 768px, and 1280px.

7. Signature Design Concept

[Design proposal; unspecified choices are defaults.]

Signature concept: The Commerce Instrument Panel. One precise design language connects shoppers, sellers, and administrators without making their workflows feel identical. Warm paper establishes trust; graphite provides structure and authority; one tangerine signal marks meaningful action, discount, focus, or active navigation.

The public entry is an editorial 12-column hero rather than a centred SaaS stack. The left seven columns carry the oversized two-line headline “Everything you need. Every seller you trust.”, a 16px muted subline, a black search field with a tangerine Search action, and three hairline-divided tabular figures: 12k sellers, 4M products, 48h delivery. The right five columns bleed a graphite #17181A block to the viewport edge holding one large 4:5 product photograph, a tangerine discount badge, tabular price, and a small white Shop the deal action. Beneath the band, a full-width hairline ticker of category names scrolls slowly left, leading into category navigation, featured products, deals, best sellers, and recommendations. At 768px the graphite block drops below the type at 16:9; at 375px it stacks under the search with the headline wrapping to three lines and no element cropped.

The same grammar scales into operational surfaces: KPI strips use 40px tabular numerals; tables use sticky headers, zebra-free hairline rows, right-aligned numbers, and inline status chips; sidebar navigation uses 11px grouped labels and a hairline active-rail marker. Loading, empty, error, and success states are first-class components: paper-tone skeletons replace content during loading, while schematic line diagrams and one clear black retry/action button replace blank screens. Confirmation dialogs, validation messages, action menus, wishlist controls, ratings, prices, discounts, and cart actions stay consistent across responsive customer, seller, and admin interfaces.

8. Interaction Model & Motion Direction

[Design proposal; unspecified choices are defaults.]

Interaction Model: Animated Motion Tempo: restrained Hero Dimensionality: flat

Page 42 of 52

8.1 Landing Hero Motion Brief

  • Focal subject: the hero-deal product photograph inside the graphite right-hand block; the product is the visual subject while the left field communicates discovery and trust.
  • Input → transformation → outcome: a shopper enters a query in the black search field → the field and tangerine Search action transition into accepted product discovery → results arrive through the marketplace's product-oriented loading, success, or result states.
  • Motion vocabulary: functional 120–200ms transitions using cubic-bezier(.2,0,0,1) for focus, hover, tabs, drawers, and navigation; a 1.4s linear paper-tone skeleton shimmer for loading; a 160ms slide-in for cart badges and toasts. No bounce, parallax, scroll-jacking, or decorative motion.
  • First frame: warm paper left field with the two-line headline, search control, and three statistics; graphite right block with the product image, tangerine discount badge, price, and Shop the deal action. The category ticker moves slowly beneath the hero; at 768px the graphite block drops below the type, and at 375px it stacks below search without cropping readable content.
  • Reduced motion: prefers-reduced-motion makes state changes instant, stops the ticker, replaces animated skeleton shimmer with a static skeleton, and preserves category/product rows as wrapped or horizontally scrollable content so every item can be brought fully into view.

8.2 Project: Multi-Vendor E-Commerce Marketplace Platform / UI/UX Design Requirements / Design Guidelines

  • Include loading states, skeleton screens, empty states, error states, and success messages.

  • Provide clear validation messages and confirmation dialogs.
