CLS Rockies — From Figma Build to Product Platform

I translated approved Figma designs into a responsive WordPress website and built the structured system behind its commercial-equipment catalog.

The challenge

More than a visual rebuild

CLS Rockies needed its legacy website rebuilt from approved Figma designs as a responsive WordPress platform serving customers across Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.

Product information arrived across manufacturer pages, brochures, and specification sheets. I organized it into reusable fields, taxonomies, and templates so dozens of products could be maintained consistently.

Core project requirements

  • Match the approved Figma layouts across responsive breakpoints.
  • Build reusable WordPress patterns for pages, products, and shared elements.
  • Normalize manufacturer content into structured product fields and templates.
  • Organize equipment by type, category, and brand.
  • Deliver within the original estimate despite expanded production work.

What I built

A reusable WordPress platform

Responsive Figma implementation, structured WordPress architecture, and focused custom code.

Responsive Figma implementation

Translated approved page designs into production-ready responsive layouts, shared headers and footers, page-specific hero sections, navigation behavior, calls to action, and reusable content patterns.

Structured product catalog

Created a dedicated Product content type with classifications for equipment type, product category, and brand so equipment could be managed consistently instead of as disconnected static pages.

Reusable product template

Built a single-product presentation system that turns structured fields into consistent product summaries, key features, benefits, technical specifications, resources, and inquiry paths.

Editor-friendly custom fields

Configured repeatable product fields for subtitles, descriptions, resource links, feature-and-benefit content, specification tables, source notes, and verification status.

Focused PHP and JavaScript

Added custom catalog ordering, import/export utilities, product-template shortcodes, clickable cards, gallery behavior, team-member modals, sticky navigation, and mobile-menu interactions.

Content normalization and QA

Consolidated manufacturer pages, brochures, and specification sheets into verified product content, imagery, metadata, and resource links.

WordPress engineering

How the platform was engineered

The implementation combined a custom GeneratePress child theme built specifically for the new WordPress site, reusable GenerateBlocks patterns, centralized design settings, structured product data, and focused custom code.

  • WordPress typography settings
  • Responsive QA
Theme foundation

Built a custom GeneratePress child theme specifically for the new WordPress implementation, with GenerateBlocks powering reusable, responsive page components.

Design system

Centralized colors, typography, spacing, and reusable block styles.

Content model

Created a Product content type, three catalog taxonomies, and 11 structured product-detail fields for reusable equipment pages.

Templates and queries

Shared templates and controlled queries produced consistent pages and business-defined manufacturer ordering.

Custom behavior

Focused PHP and ES6+ JavaScript supported catalog utilities, shortcodes, interactive cards, galleries, team modals, navigation, and mobile behavior.

Content workflow

Normalized manufacturer content into verified product data, imagery, metadata, and resource links.

Responsive design system

Figma-matched fluid typography

I mapped the Figma font sizes, weights, and line heights into centralized WordPress typography settings. CSS clamp() values created a fluid scale from desktop through mobile, verified against the supplied layouts.

  2. 02 Centralized fluid scale Built reusable WordPress settings with clamp-based sizing.
  3. 03 Cross-device verification Compared output against desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts.

The outcome

A polished website backed by a practical content system

The result is both a responsive B2B marketing website and an extensible equipment-management platform.

Design translation

Production aligned with the approved designs

The website carries the Figma direction into responsive production layouts while accounting for real content, navigation, reusable components, and WordPress editing needs.

Catalog scale

Dozens of products managed consistently

At the documented catalog capture, WordPress contained 51 equipment records across multiple brands, categories, and equipment types, with 31 products published and additional records staged for review.

Maintainability

Structured editing instead of one-off pages

Product data can be updated through purpose-built fields and classifications while the shared template maintains consistent presentation across the catalog.

Delivery control

Expanded complexity absorbed within the estimate

I completed the hands-on implementation in 50 hours and 39 minutes, within the original 42–52 hour range, while adding content normalization, catalog architecture, technical remediation, and production QA that were not fully visible at proposal time.

Completed for CLS Rockies through Brindle Digital Marketing. Figma designs were supplied; I handled WordPress architecture, responsive implementation, custom functionality, catalog construction, and launch support.
