People don't buy a sofa, a lamp or a set of ceramics on their own. They buy how a room will look. That's why home and decor stores sell best when products are shown in context: styled rooms, materials up close, dimensions that are easy to check and delivery information that removes the fear of ordering something big online.
Here's how to choose a Shopify theme for home and living, followed by our shortlist from page one of the Shopify Theme Store's Home category (sorted by relevance, November 2026). We built Wonder Theme, so it comes first; for each alternative we explain where it fits best.
Our pick: Wonder Theme with the NOOK preset, honoured by Awwwards in October 2026. Shop the room, editorial content and delivery information are built in.
NOOK is the home and interior preset of Wonder Theme. It received an Awwwards Honor in October 2026, the fourth Awwwards distinction for Wonder presets.

What is the best Shopify theme for a furniture store? One that shows products in rooms (image hotspots), makes dimensions and delivery easy to check and suggests matching items. Wonder's NOOK preset is built around this; Expanse fits retailers with very large catalogues.
How do I reduce returns of large items? Put dimensions, materials and delivery details on the product page, use real photos of finishes and show the product in a room for scale.
Can a home decor store use the same theme as a fashion store? Yes, if the theme has presets. Wonder uses one codebase for five presets, so the store can change direction without a new licence.
Does Wonder support in-store pickup? Yes, together with gift wrapping and cart notes.
