Fernweh — split flap departures website demo
Bespoke Travel Atelier — a demo build by Codelith Lab, live and open to click through.
Bespoke travel atelier you operate like an airport. The hero is a real mechanical SPLIT-FLAP DEPARTURES BOARD — six journeys (Kyoto, Patagonia, Marrakech, Santorini, the Namib, Lofoten) whose letter-flaps cascade-flip into place on load and whose statuses keep flipping live (Boarding / Final call / 2 seats left). Tap a row to fly to that journey. Then a TRIP BUILDER: add destinations, watch the day + price total climb, drop in a passenger name and ISSUE A BOARDING PASS — a printed-looking pass w/ multi-city routing (LON → KYO → RAK), seat, gate, perforated stub & a generated barcode. Plus a live five-city world-clock strip. Bodoni Moda display + IBM Plex Mono flaps; bone, deep spruce-teal & departure-board amber. The build runs as a 6-section page with 353 words of real copy and 3 images, and it holds up from desktop down to a 390px phone screen.

Inside the build
We don't sell holidays. We plot journeys — by hand, one traveller at a time. Tell us the feeling you're chasing; we'll find the place, the people and the hour it's at its best.
The board.Six journeys, currently open. Tap any destination to jump to it — the board updates as seats move.
No brochures. Just a conversation and a plan.A real one — over a call, not a form. We ask what moves you, not just where and when. Budget stays honest from minute one.
Where is your mind already going?Leave a name and a feeling. A designer — a person, singular — writes back within a day.
