Sohaib Ilyas – Architectural Filmmaker Portfolio Website

Sohaib Ilyas, an award-winning architectural filmmaker based in New Delhi, required a digital space to showcase his films and client projects elegantly. His accolades include Architectural Videographer of the Year from Architizer (New York), Best Architecture Video Firm from Loop Design Awards (Portugal), and selections in top global festivals.

The visual philosophy was grounded in cinematic minimalism—letting light, space, and emotion inform every layout. The tone is contemplative, refined, and deeply focused on storytelling through architecture.

Built in Framer from scratch, featuring a modular, responsive structure for smooth navigation across devices.

The hero section introduces Sohaib with bold typography and a gallery interface that elevates his brand.

The Select Work gallery presents client projects in clean grid layouts, allowing visual narratives to take centre stage.

Each project page (e.g., Dr. Vishnuvardhan Memorial, House of Memories) includes immersive films, project descriptions, and client insight—crafted to highlight both architectural nuance and emotional resonance.

Performance-focused enhancements: lazy-loading media, touch-optimised scrolling, and minimal motion to preserve atmosphere without sacrificing speed or usability.

The new website captures Sohaib’s storytelling essence—cinematic, thoughtful, and emotionally resonant. It offers a seamless user journey from awe-inspiring hero visuals to deep-dive project stories, reinforcing his presence as a global leader in architectural filmmaking.
