Scope
Static UI-to-Code Conversion, Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Architecture, Zero-Bloat Legacy Deployment
berber-sf2 Berber SF, a premier fine dining and supper club in San Francisco, required a digital presence as atmospheric and refined as their physical venue. Their team had a precise, high-fidelity UI design ready, but needed an engineering partner capable of translating that vision without relying on bloated, drag-and-drop page builders that traditionally slow down image-heavy restaurant menus and reservation gateways.
Operating strictly natively, I executed a flawless 1-to-1 conversion of their static design into a custom WordPress architecture. By deploying a zero-bloat foundation powered entirely by Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), we delivered a lightning-fast frontend experience while giving their internal staff a frictionless backend to seamlessly manage seasonal menus and event schedules without breaking the layout.
Strict Design-to-Code Translation: Executed a pixel-perfect conversion from static UI files directly into clean PHP and CSS, perfectly preserving the client’s high-end visual brand without the DOM bloat of third-party templates.
Frictionless Menu Management: Engineered a bespoke ACF backend infrastructure, allowing the restaurant staff to rapidly update text-heavy seasonal menus and showtimes without touching a single line of code.
Zero-Bloat Performance Foundation: Bypassed all generic visual builders to establish a lightweight native architecture, ensuring rapid load times that prevent customer drop-off during peak dining reservation hours.
Archived Legacy Deployment: Delivered as a high-performance foundational build, this early engineering architecture successfully scaled their content and proved the viability of pure native development before the platform was eventually superseded.

Let’s engineer a bespoke foundation that commands authority.
This project is a legacy deployment.
The original custom architecture has since been replaced with a third-party theme, and the live environment no longer reflects our native codebase.
Current custom builds utilizing our proprietary custom theme framework continue to consistently deploy at a strict 90+ performance baseline. Review current architecture benchmarks
