Temple & Spark

Brand and a live 3D desk configurator, built from scratch

Temple & Spark builds heirloom analog studio desks: hardwood consoles with integrated rack bays for vintage outboard gear, sized around reel-to-reels, synths, and the ergonomics of long sessions. Their desks sit in the rooms of some of music's most respected names: System of a Down, Jack Antonoff, H.E.R., Tycho, The War on Drugs. I built their entire presence from scratch: brand identity, packaging system, website, and commerce. The identity hangs on an ampersand-and-asterisk monogram, screen-printed across kraft shipping boxes, assembly kits, and a hardbound brand book. The storefront pairs a chapter-based desk builder (a real-time Three.js scene with cinematic lighting presets and live validated pricing) with a Medusa headless-commerce backend handling carts, checkout, and made-to-order SKUs.

The website

Custom Next.js storefront, designed and built from scratch - live at templeandspark.com. Hardwood desks, sidecars, and handcrafted audio racks, photographed in the studios of working musicians.

Walk the desk builder

The heart of the site: a chapter-based commissioning flow around a real-time Three.js studio scene - cinematic lighting, directed cameras, and live validated pricing through a Medusa headless-commerce backend. Each frame below is the real product; click in and play.

Chapter 01 - Foundation. Choose the desk's stance: fixed, sit/stand, or L-shaped command center - opening on a working station with loaded rack bays, monitor, and speakers.
Chapter 04 - Studio Architecture. The backline pre-composed: straight shelf, rack bays loaded with vintage analog gear, monitor and speakers up, golden-hour lighting.
Chapter 08 - Build Review. A fully dressed build - straight shelf, loaded rack bays, monitor and speakers - as the fabrication-ready sheet, priced and protected through Medusa checkout.

03

And the rack builder

A companion configurator for the outboard gear itself: a real-time Three.js rack you fill bay by bay, on the same Medusa-priced commerce backend as the desk builder. The frame below is the live product - click in and build a rack.

The rack builder - compose a handcrafted audio rack bay by bay, priced live through the same Medusa backend.
