Designer & Developer
Premium websites, landing pages, and redesigns — designed around your brand, audience, and goals, and built to load fast, work reliably, and convert.
Six projects exploring different approaches to digital design, interaction, and frontend development. Each is a concept project — designed and built from scratch, with no frameworks and no templates.
Quiet luxury meets Swiss precision — editorial property presentations with massive architectural photography, interactive floor plans, and a map-driven location experience. Built with Next.js.
Editorial storytelling with arch motifs, linen textures, and canvas-drawn dye plates — including an interactive dye-bath selector that dyes the cloth live.
A bento-grid product page with a live control room: deploy stages, an SLO error-budget gauge, a service map, and a p95 telemetry chart — all drawn in real time.
A skeuomorphic brand experience where leather, wood, brushed metal, glass, and linen are all generated with CSS gradients. Physical buttons depress; a control panel adjusts the whole material system live.
An ultra-premium dark interface built around the physics of emitted light — obsidian layers, warm gold accents, cursor-following glow, and a live canvas chart.
A Material Design 3 showcase with a full token system — 13 color pairs, 10 elevation levels, live chart toggling with SVG path morphs, and an interactive control panel.
Three services, each scoped to your pages, features, and goals. If you're not sure which fits, tell me what you're trying to do — that's the first conversation.
Custom business websites designed around your brand, audience, and goals — from structure and visual direction through responsive development and launch.
Focused landing pages designed around a specific offer, campaign, product, or conversion goal — fast to build, easy to iterate.
Thoughtful redesigns that modernize an existing website, improve structure and usability, and create a stronger digital presence.
A simple, four-step process. No twelve-stage agency workflow — just steady progress with you in the loop.
Understand the business, audience, goals, and requirements before anything is designed.
Define the structure, visual direction, and experience. You see it before it's built.
Develop the approved design into a fast, responsive website with clean, maintainable code.
Test, refine, deploy, and hand over the finished website — with everything you need to keep it running.

I combine thoughtful visual design with a software engineering background to create websites that are not only polished, but responsive, performant, and built to work reliably. Every project below was written by hand — no templates, no page builders.
I'm Rishikesh, a designer and developer with a software engineering background. I enjoy turning ideas into thoughtful digital experiences — combining visual design with the technical discipline needed to build them properly.
I work directly with business owners and teams to build websites that look premium, load fast, and are genuinely easy to maintain. The five projects on this page show the range: I don't have one visual style — I adapt the experience to the character of the business.
