3D Web Design Studio — Boutique Operation
A studio of one — same delivery quality as a boutique studio, with direct developer access and significantly lower cost.
A 3D web design studio operation, sized for one. The advantage of a boutique studio: focused work, no junior-of-record handoffs, clear ownership of decisions. My version of that: solo developer based in Serbia, working remote with EU and US clients, fixed-price contracts, 4-6 week delivery for standard scope. Same quality bar as a boutique studio in Berlin or NYC, at 30-50% of their pricing because of cost-of-living arbitrage. Engagement model: 30-min discovery call, written quote, 50% upfront / 50% on delivery, source on your GitHub. No retainer required, no monthly minimum.
Technical foundation
Stack: Three.js v0.170 with GSAP for animation timeline, Lenis for smooth scroll, Vite for build, GLSL for custom shaders when needed. Hosting on a Hetzner / DigitalOcean equivalent — fast first byte, HTTP/2, Brotli compression, CDN for static assets. Lighthouse mobile 85+ guaranteed.
Where it fits
This service is the right call when the brand needs a visual moment that ranks beyond the average competitor — agencies pitching new business, premium e-commerce, portfolios that need to look ahead-of-curve. If you need a basic content site or blog, a static-site generator without 3D is more economical and ranks just as well for simple keyword targets.
Timeline
Discovery week 1, design week 1-2, development weeks 2-5, integration and QA week 5-6. Total: 4-6 weeks for the standard scope. Larger scope (configurator, multi-scene scrollytelling) extends to 8-12 weeks. I send weekly progress in writing — you always know where the project stands.
Concrete deliverable
What you receive at handover: a working 3D Web Design Studio — Boutique Operation on production hosting, all source files committed to your GitHub repo, og-images for social sharing, basic schema.org markup, sitemap entry, and a 5-min walkthrough video. The site is yours from day one — I never hold code hostage.
