# How to Add Smooth & Modern Design to the Studio Theme

Add a stylish wave effect to your store layout. The Wave Section creates natural flow between sections, giving your storefront a clean, modern, and engaging look that keeps customers scrolling. This guide shows how to add the Smooth & Modern Design section to the Studio theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Studio's code. Studio is a free theme by Shopify, known for gallery grids and art-forward presentation — and content & extras like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Smooth & Modern Design fits Studio

Instagram feeds, blog highlights, galleries and handy utilities that round out your storefront. For Studio specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: limited social-proof options, and Smooth & Modern Design fills that gap while inheriting Studio's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. The polaroid-style gallery section gives Studio stores a personal, behind-the-scenes feel stock grids can’t.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Studio setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Smooth & Modern Design” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Content & Extras category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Studio theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Studio uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Studio theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Wave Divider” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Studio font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Smooth & Modern Design work with the Studio theme?

Yes. Studio is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Smooth & Modern Design installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Studio's theme editor as “SShop:Wave Divider”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Smooth & Modern Design match Studio's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Studio's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Smooth & Modern Design free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Smooth & Modern Design is free, like every section in the 56-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Studio theme and keeps working.
