A soft-luxury portfolio theme for interior designers and decorators: warm stone and linen, large Cormorant headlines, arched image masks, material mood boards and a before and after centerpiece.

== Description ==

Travertine sets your interior design studio like a page of a well-printed monograph: warm linen paper, umber ink, clay and brass accents, large Cormorant headlines in roman and italic, small caps labels and thin brass rules. Photographs sit in arch-shaped "niches", each framed by a second, finer arch that opens a little when you point at it. The work is the colour.

It is built on the Symelo portfolio foundation, so projects are a real content type with their own fields, and everything below works without a page builder:

* **Projects**: a Projects menu with disciplines and industries, client, year, role, duration, location, tools, a live link, a summary, galleries, a before/after slider, results, credits, a client quote, a map and the next project. Values are edited with the free Secure Custom Fields plugin (the theme offers to install it) and keep showing without it.
* **Project pages**: the before/after slider sits directly under the title, the gallery is an arch-masked carousel, and the facts are set in small caps.
* **Five heroes**: an arched triptych, a full-bleed room, a before and after arch, a material mood board and a split hero with a "Book a consultation" button.
* **Signature sections**: the process (consultation, concept, sourcing, installation) on a brass line, a collage of material swatches, testimonials as large italic quotes and a consultation form with room type and approximate size.
* **Forms**: a project inquiry form, contact and collaboration forms. Messages are stored in the dashboard and emailed to you.
* **Galleries**: masonry and carousel gallery styles and a lightbox with captions, swipe and keyboard support.
* **Motion**: slow fades and quiet reveals; all of it off for visitors who prefer reduced motion.
* **Light and dark**: a switch in the header that remembers the visitor's choice, and three style variations: Evening (dark), Limewash and Terracotta, each with its own night or day partner.

Templates: blog home, single post, page, archive, search, 404, the project page, the projects archive, discipline and industry archives, plus the custom templates Landing page, Wide and Case study. Template parts: header (centered wordmark), header over a hero image, footer and a minimal footer.

More than fifty patterns for a studio site, from heroes and selected work to services, the process, the materials board, testimonials, the studio, FAQ, forms and complete pages.

The demo content (Appearance → Import demo) installs a complete studio with nine projects, disciplines, industries, clients, awards and the Home, Work, Studio and Contact pages.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Where do I add projects and studio details? =

Projects have their own menu (Projects → Add Project); the project details are below the editor. Your availability, email, phone, address, clients and awards are under Projects → Studio details. Both need the free Secure Custom Fields plugin, which the theme offers to install in one click. Without it, everything already entered keeps showing.

= Where do form submissions go? =

Every inquiry, message, collaboration request and newsletter signup is saved under **Messages** in the dashboard and emailed to the site's administration email address. To send them somewhere else, open Messages → Settings and enter one or more recipients, or select a form block and set its own recipients in the block settings. Make sure your site can send email (most hosts need an SMTP plugin or service for reliable delivery).

= How does the hover preview of the project index work? =

On a computer with a mouse, the cover image of the row under the pointer follows it. It uses the project's featured image ("Cover image"). On phones and tablets the image shows as a small thumbnail at the start of each row, and keyboard users see it beside the focused row.

= How do I add a featured video to a project or a post? =

In the editor, open the document settings and find the **Featured video** panel. Paste a YouTube or Vimeo link, or choose a video file from the media library. The project page shows it edge to edge in place of the cover image.

= Can I turn the animations off? =

They switch off automatically for visitors who ask their device for reduced motion. To remove an animation from a block, select it and clear the effect in the **Motion** panel (or remove the `sk-…` class under Advanced → Additional CSS classes).

= How does dark mode work? =

The moon / sun button in the header switches between a light and a dark palette and remembers the choice in the visitor's browser. Every style variation has its own partner: Paper and Night swap with each other, Blueprint has a cobalt night, Kraft a dark brown and Mono a pure black version. Pick the variation in Appearance → Editor → Styles.

= Why does the page title sometimes not appear? =

The page template leaves out the title when the page opens with its own hero (a heading, a cover or one of the hero and full-page patterns), so it never appears twice. Use the Landing page template to leave it out everywhere.
