The design is approved. Now it has to survive the build.
nn
We turn Figma files into WordPress and custom front-end sites without losing what made the design work: spacing, typography, hierarchy and motion.
nn
What gets lost in a normal handoff
nn
- n
- Spacing that gets “adjusted” by eye.
- Typography with wrong weights and tracking.
- Images recompressed with no criteria.
- Motion improvised by whoever builds it.
- Breakpoints where the design simply falls apart.

The result: your design, degraded, with your name on the invoice.

How we do it differently
nn
- n
- File review before quoting. Layers, components, tokens and edge cases: if something is not viable as-is, we know before we start.
- Spacing and type system extracted from the file, not interpreted. Scales, line-heights and tracking come from the Figma, not from a template.
- Reusable components in the CMS. Your client edits content without breaking the design and without touching code.
- Motion spec approved in a prototype before the full build, while changing your mind is still cheap.
- QA on real devices and browsers. Keyboard, screen readers, reduced motion and Core Web Vitals.

Stack
nn
Custom WordPress (no heavy page builders), modern front-end in HTML/CSS/JS, GSAP for motion, and headless architecture when the project calls for it. We adapt to the stack your agency already uses when it makes sense.
nn
The result
nn
- n
- A site your client can see without footnotes: faithful to the approved file.
- A CMS your team and your client actually understand.
- Performance and accessibility verified, not promised.
- Handoff documentation that keeps maintenance simple.

FAQ
nn
Do you only work with Figma?
n
Figma is our main format. We also take Adobe XD, Sketch or detailed specs when the project requires it.
nn
Do you work on an existing theme or from scratch?
n
Both. We can build a custom theme, work on an existing one, or ship a custom front-end with WordPress as the CMS.
nn
What if the design is not viable as-is?
n
We say so during the review, with concrete alternatives. We never promise something the browser cannot deliver without telling you the cost.
nn
How many revision rounds are included?
n
Rounds are agreed per project before we start. We treat revisions with the same care as the first pass.
nn

n
Send the Figma, deadline and motion reference. We review the difficult interaction, flag the risks and reply with a clear next step.

n
What pixel-perfect Figma to WordPress actually means
n
It means the build matches the file at every breakpoint the designer drew ??? and at the ones they did not. We extract design tokens first: colors, type scale, spacing, radii, shadows. Nothing gets hardcoded as a one-off hex value. Components are rebuilt in code as reusable blocks, not sliced images.
n
Our Figma to WordPress process
n
1. Review: layers, components, states, breakpoints, motion notes. We flag anything ambiguous before starting. 2. Tokens: export the design system to CSS custom properties or theme.json. 3. Build: components first, then pages, then motion. 4. QA: compare the build against the .fig file at every breakpoint, including the ones only sketched. 5. Handoff: code, documentation, and a walkthrough for your team.
n
What we need from your design team
n
A reasonably organized Figma file. Named layers, components where patterns repeat, and annotated micro-interactions. We do not need a perfect file ??? we need a file we can read. If the handoff is messy, our checklist (zicua.com/guides/) covers exactly what to fix before sending it over.
