Independent design engineer

Websitesbuilt aroundone idea.

I design and build distinctive websites for businesses that need to be remembered — strategy, design, motion and code handled from one desk.

Scroll
  • 01Strategy

    What the site has to do, settled before anything gets drawn.

  • 02Art direction

    Type, image and restraint. A look that belongs to your business.

  • 03Development

    Built by the person who designed it. Nothing is lost in a handoff.

  • 04Motion

    Movement with a reason. The rest gets cut before launch.

Selected work

Five concepts,built in full.

Nobody commissioned these. That is the point. The approach is provable before you pay for it.

Kanak — Hospitality · Ordering website01

Kanak

Hospitality · Ordering2025

  • Online booking
Saanjh Punjabi Kitchen — Hospitality website03

Saanjh Punjabi Kitchen

Hospitality2025

Independent concept — built to prove the approach before asking anyone to pay for it.

Meridian Residences — Property website04

Meridian Residences

Property2026

Independent concept — built to prove the approach before asking anyone to pay for it.

A launch site for a 672-home development that had to feel like the building, not a brochure about it.

  • Vaughan, Ontario
  • 672 residences
  • 5 acres landscaped
Atelier Holm — Architecture website05

Atelier Holm

Architecture2025

Independent concept — built to prove the approach before asking anyone to pay for it.

An architecture and build studio that draws, details and makes under one roof. The site had to move at the pace the work does.

  • Whitby and London
  • Drawn to made, one roof
  • Serif editorial system

What a site is for

Notdecoration.

  • A restaurant needsorders.

  • A contractor needsenquiries.

  • A development needsdesire.

  • A service business needstrust.

The rule

Motion, 3D and interaction earn their place only when they make the page do its job better. When they don’t, they don’t ship.

How it goes

Two real browserdirections.Not static mockups.

Four steps, first call to launch. Most of the risk in commissioning a site is not knowing what happens after you pay. This is the whole thing.

  1. 01

    Fit

    20–30 minutes. Scope, goals, and whether I’m the right person.

  2. 02

    Direction

    Two directions, built as real pages you can open. You pick one.

  3. 03

    Build

    Design and code evolve together. Staging link from day one.

  4. 04

    Launch

    Deploy, measure real Core Web Vitals, hand over the repo. 30 days of fixes.

Pricing

What it costs,before you ask.

Projects from $4,500 CAD. Most engagements land between $5,000 and $10,000. Advanced interactive, ordering and commerce builds start higher.

What each tier includes

Who you’d be working with

I’m Vishal. I design and build every project myself. The person deciding how your site should feel is the same person writing the code that makes it work.

The brief

Four questions. Then I know whether I can help.

What do you want the site to do?
Rough budget

A range, not a commitment. It tells me what is possible.
