Habitat Studio

A brand and booking engine for boutique stays.

A brand and booking interface for a boutique-stays operator — calm, editorial, and bookable in three taps.

The brief

Habitat operates a small collection of design-led boutique stays. The previous site felt like a hotel chain. They wanted it to feel like a magazine — but still convert.

What we shipped
  • An editorial brand identity — generous type, restrained palette, a custom suite of pictograms for room amenities.
  • A booking flow that takes three taps from listing to checkout, with no account required for the first booking.
  • A headless CMS setup so the operator can publish new properties without touching code.
  • A photo direction system the operator’s in-house team now uses on every shoot.
Outcome

A site that reads as editorial, books as e-commerce, and lets the operator keep their own voice while doing it.
