About the studio

One person. One studio. Built to make local businesses look big.

Storefront Studio makes websites, product stills, UGC ads and motion graphics for local businesses. No agency layers, no hand-offs — just one person who builds the work and answers the messages.

Storefront Studio was built with one goal: give a local business everything it needs to look credible online, fast — without the cost, the delay and the confusion of dealing with three different agencies.

A website that converts, product photography, scroll-stopping ads and motion graphics — the four things that actually win customers online — from one place, in Arabic and English, live in about five days.

Who runs this studio

My name is Farasat Abbas Naqvi. I work as an engineer, and in my spare time I design websites and build practical online tools that make everyday tasks easier. You can read more about my professional background on LinkedIn, and see other things I have built in the at the top of this page.

To be upfront about it: I am one person, not an agency, and I would not pretend otherwise. What I can offer instead is work that is genuinely fast, simple and honest — and an owner who actually reads the feedback and fixes things himself.

Why I built it

I started Storefront Studio after noticing the same pattern again and again: a business with a great reputation and a wall of five-star reviews, but no website — quietly losing the people searching for it to a competitor who did have one.

And when they did go looking for help, what they found was often needlessly complicated. Agencies that were slow and expensive, quotes you had to email for, projects passed between three people, and contracts that locked you in. I wanted a simpler alternative: send your Google Maps link, get a demo of your own business back, go live on your own domain in about five days, and own the files. That is still the whole idea, and every decision here is measured against it.

How I build and maintain it

I do the work personally. I design the sites, write the copy in both languages, generate the photography and the ads, fix the technical issues and add new options whenever they make the job easier. It is an ongoing project, not something launched once and left alone.

I also value feedback and take reported problems seriously. If a demo is missing something obvious, or a page is awkward on your phone, telling me is the fastest way to get it fixed — usually the same day.

How to read the demos here

The six businesses shown on the homepage — a coffee shop, a restaurant, a school, a hospital, a salon and a gym — are fictional. Their names, ratings, staff, menus and prices were written to demonstrate the work, and every demo page says so on a visible ribbon. The photography and the ads are AI-generated and made to be replaced by your own the moment you become a client.

The Live sites menu is the opposite: those are real, running websites with real users. If you want proof that the work is real, that is where to look.

Approach to privacy

This site is deliberately simple. There is no database, no account and no tracking dashboard. When you send the contact form, it composes a WhatsApp message you review and send yourself — I never collect a list or a newsletter, and there is no follow-up spam. Your details reach me only when you choose to press send.

Get in touch

Questions or feedback? I read every one.

Corrections and feature requests are genuinely welcome. If something is broken or a demo is missing an obvious detail, telling me is the fastest way to get it fixed.

Storefront Studio is independently created and maintained by Farasat Abbas Naqvi. I hope it gives your business an easy, honest way to look as good online as it already is in person.
