Template Overview

Kujira is a template for omakase restaurants and Japanese fine-dining brands that want their site to mirror the room. The design follows a "Zen Luxury" direction: an obsidian #0a0a0a base with gold and warm cream accents, generous white space, and Japanese typography. Its standout feature is a scroll-driven hero animation. A GPU-accelerated HTML5 Canvas renders a 192-frame sequence, and scrolling controls playback so visitors move through the footage at their own pace. A CSS-variable system keeps colors, timings, and spacing consistent, and a GSAP ScrollTrigger gallery gives menu highlights a snap-to-grid feel.

A custom preloader manages frame buffering for stable, shift-free loading. Available in HTML and React.

Key Features

• Scroll Driven Image Sequence Hero: A cinematic 192-frame animation sequence rendered on a high performance HTML5 , allowing users to "scroll through" the meticulous preparation of sushi.
• GPU Accelerated Canvas Rendering: Engineered for ultimate smoothness, the hero animation uses raw pixel data mapping to ensure high frame rates even on lower end mobile devices.
• GSAP Powered Horizontal Menu Gallery: An immersive horizontal scroller that pins the viewport in place, providing an interactive showcase of signature dishes with custom hover reveal effects.
• Multi Layered Philosophy Section: An asymmetric layout featuring large scale Japanese kanji background typography (鯨) and serif headlines for a high concept, cultural brand narrative.
• Custom Culinary Preloader: A dedicated asset loading engine that tracks buffered memory progress for the image sequence, ensuring a fluid animation experience upon the first user interaction., "Zen Luxury" Design Tokens: A robust :root CSS system defining an obsidian, gold, and cream palette for consistent, high end branding across all individual site components.
• Integrated Japanese Typography Stack: A sophisticated pairing of Noto Serif JP for authentic characters and Cormorant Garamond for elegant headers, creating a global luxury editorial feel.
