Module 01 // Structural Blueprint

Site Architecture & Navigation

Establishing the foundational hierarchy for the Thorn and Thimble digital presence. This output defines the user journey from entry to final engagement.

Prompt Specification

Construct a multi-layered navigation system that reflects the artisanal nature of the studio. The primary interaction should feel deliberate and rhythmic. Reject generic service-page hierarchy. Every click should reward the visitor with material detail, not marketing copy.

Homepage

Implement a high-contrast landing experience using a 3-column asymmetric grid. Focus on Bangor-specific context through a dedicated Origin sub-header. Primary CTA: Book Consultation. Secondary CTA: Read Before Your Appointment.

Content Flow

Utilize a staggered reveal for the studio portfolio. Each entry should be preceded by a metadata summary in Manrope, followed by a large-scale visual anchor in Newsreader. No hover-lift card tricks.

Depth & Portfolio

A hidden archival section accessible only via a restrained footer link, showcasing process sketches and raw material studies in a minimalist list format. This is the invitation to go deeper; do not surface it on the main nav.

Trust & Credibility

Aftercare, sterilization practice, and jewelry sourcing live as first-class pages, not footer links. Libby's voice leads. No industry-standard safety boilerplate.

Constraints

• Mobile-first layout (but desktop is the star) • No excessive animation • No stock imagery • Use provided showcase photography before generated imagery • SEO must support Bangor + Central Maine queries • Preserve premium restraint • Do not use the word 'trauma-informed' as marketing copy

Output Format

Return a sitemap tree, a per-page section outline, and a 200-word voice & tone statement. No generic examples. Cite Libby's own language from the brief wherever possible.
