Nocturne

Nocturne is built for architectural lighting design practices working after dark on real buildings and cityscapes. The hero runs on genuine CC0 architectural-lighting photography behind a scrim rather than a stock-photo placeholder, with glassmorphism cards and scroll-reveal choreography carrying that same low-light mood through the rest of the site. Enquiries route through a real AJAX form, keeping the portfolio's follow-through as considered as its photography.

Chatoyance Featured

A one-of-a-kind jewelry maison storefront: a real Three.js/WebGL2 gem viewer lets shoppers drag-orbit each piece, swap between 18K gold, rose gold, platinum and blackened metal in real time, and read live facet-angle, refractive-index, critical-angle and fire-frequency numbers off an on-canvas HUD as the stone turns. A browsing-history-driven style curator recommends pieces from the visitor's own session, computed entirely client-side with no dependency on any external AI service. Runs as a compiled React/Vite storefront embedded inside a classic WordPress theme, with a custom "Luxury Products" catalogue (no WooCommerce dependency).

A persistent WebGL2 light field built on Schlick's Fresnel approximation and diamond's real per-wavelength dispersion, a Gem Physics comparator on real mineralogical constants, and Web Audio synthesis driven by each piece's real beat frequency and bell-partial ratios.

AETHERIA

The background is the product. A real WebGL2 particle field runs behind the whole site, five simulations deep, with its live state reported in the rail rather than claimed in the copy. It's a genuine WebGL2 transform-feedback particle integration with a ping-ponged trail buffer, sharing one engine across five simulations on a classic no-build-step PHP theme with zero third-party JavaScript. Case studies, capabilities, recognition, and testimonials run as real post types, backed by a working AJAX inquiry endpoint that actually stores and notifies — built for creative and design agencies.
