Nordhaus is a home and furniture store theme for CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor. Shoppers see every piece in a room before they buy it: rooms are the main navigation, the homepage opens on a shoppable room scene with numbered hotspots, a room total and “Add the room to bag”, every product stands on a floor line in front of a wall, materials are shown as real textures and the product page answers “will it fit?”.
What you get
Section titled “What you get”- The Nordhaus theme, a child of the standard Responsive theme, so every add-on keeps working.
- Four styles that repaint the room itself, not only the accent:
- Linen: linen ground, walnut-ink type, moss buttons, a warm plaster room, ink hotspots.
- Walnut: dark walnut store with cream type, ochre buttons and brass lines; the room sits in a framed mat.
- Fjord: cool grey-blue store with white cards and header, pine buttons, tomato hotspots and square corners.
- Terrazzo: off-white store with a blush room, coral buttons, pistachio bands and terrazzo chips.
- Room bar under the header (Living room, Bedroom, Dining room, Kitchen, Workspace, Outdoor, Kids, Lighting, Textiles, Decor and Sale): each room opens a mega panel with its product types, a room tile (“Shop the living room”, number of pieces) and the room’s bestseller.
- Header with the wordmark, a wide search, account and saved items, and a bag button with the cart total.
- Homepage: a sale ribbon with a real countdown, a head row, room scenes in tabs (Living room, Bedroom, Dining room, Workspace) with hotspots, “In this room”, the room total and Add the room to bag, service promises, Shop by room tiles, Bestsellers by piece (tabs), Finds under $199, Shop by style, a sale row with countdowns, the material library with free samples, a spotlight with dimension lines, New in, a services band, the journal and an SEO text.
- Product cards on 4:3 wall-and-floor wells with the name in a serif, “from” prices, the material and dimensions, texture swatches (“4 finishes”), the lead time (“Ships in 48 h”, “Made to order: 6-8 weeks”), the monthly price, the seller on Multi-Vendor and a round “add to bag” button on the floor of the well.
- Category pages with product types as mini rooms, the filters as a horizontal bar with dropdown panels (a sheet on phones) and a Seen in a room tile in the grid.
- Product page with the room line, fabric and finish options as texture tiles (the gallery follows the material), size and assembly options, the lead time with a delivery window, the monthly price, delivery facts and Will it fit?: front and side drawings with every dimension and a doorway check.
- Material ribbon on top of the footer, cart side panel, sticky header, a floating tab bar and sticky buy bar on phones, subtle animations (off for visitors who prefer reduced motion).
- Installs with complete demo content: the storefront looks finished right after activation.
- Self-hosted fonts (DM Serif Display and DM Sans, SIL Open Font License): no external font requests.

Licence
Section titled “Licence”Nordhaus uses a domain-bound licence like every Kavio Labs product. Without a valid licence (after the 14-day period of a new installation, or 14 days after the licence server became unreachable) the storefront shows the standard Responsive look instead of the Nordhaus design; cart, checkout and orders keep working and visitors see no message. See Configuration.
