Signature Design Concept

The homepage of tiendadalmata will feature an interactive 3D clothing rack using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei. Users can virtually "walk" through the store by navigating a 3D space where clothing items are displayed on a rotating rack. Hovering over an item will provide a detailed view, and clicking will add it to the cart. The background will subtly change colors based on the time of day, creating a dynamic shopping atmosphere.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model, creating a layered depth effect as users scroll through the site. Decorative elements such as floating fabric textures and atmospheric lighting will enhance the visual storytelling, while the main content remains in a natural scroll flow. Internal pages will adopt a "static" model for clarity and ease of navigation.

• The platform should be accessible and responsive across all devices.
