// About
The studio behind the work.
Studio shot coming soon
Faber is a specialist studio building Shopify themes, custom Shopify apps, and MERN-stack web apps. The name is Latin for maker — a nod to the philosophical concept Homo Faber, “man the maker.”
We've been shipping ecommerce work for over five years, with deep focus on Shopify Plus and the MERN stack. Most of the work is invisible to end users: theme code that loads faster, custom apps that solve specific merchant problems, headless builds that scale beyond what templates allow.
The studio runs lean and direct. You talk to the people writing the code — not account managers or junior pass-throughs. That keeps overhead low, communication tight, and the work consistent across every engagement.
Faber is a Shopify Partner, with active work for clients including Brightlink AV, Dagacci Medical Uniforms, Luxarmonie, Made For Us, Tecniplast, and others. Notes on the craft live in the journal.
// How I build
Three things you can count on.
Ship before perfect
Done at 90% beats stuck at 99%. We launch, learn, iterate. Two weeks of follow-up included on every build.
Speak plainly
No jargon walls. You get progress updates that read like a status report, not a sales pitch.
Real metrics, not promises
Every project ships with measurable outcomes — LCP, CLS, conversion, MRR. Not vibes. Numbers.
