Questions people ask
What does EVOKE do?
EVOKE does four things that are usually one job: direction, brand identity, the website, and the motion. The idea first, then the identity that carries it, then a site built around it, then the film and stills that sell it. All of it in-house, in Mumbai.
Is EVOKE a web design agency in Mumbai?
EVOKE is an independent brand, website and motion studio in Mumbai rather than an agency. It is founder-led by Aaryaman Mascarenhas, who is directly involved in the work from direction through delivery, and it designs and builds websites for D2C, hospitality and product brands.
Where are you based, and who do you work with?
EVOKE is based in Mumbai, on IST, and takes on D2C, hospitality and product brands in India and internationally; calls are booked in your hour.
Do you work with clients outside India?
Yes. EVOKE is available to clients in India and internationally: calls are booked in your hour and the work is delivered online.
What does a website cost?
EVOKE quotes each website after one call rather than from a price list, because a site with a custom 3D hero and a film is a different job from a small brochure site, and quoting either blind would be a guess. Book a call, say what it has to do, and you get a number in writing before anything starts.
How much does a website cost in India?
Published guides put custom, agency-built websites in India between roughly ₹70,000 and several lakh rupees, and template sites far below that; the number depends on what the site has to do. EVOKE does not build template sites and gives you a written number after one call.
How long does a project take?
It depends on the scope, and the scope is settled on the first call. What is fixed is the order: agree what it is and what it costs in writing, then build, then hand over.
Do you use templates, WordPress or Webflow?
No. Every site is designed and built for its brand, with immersive 3D and motion where they add meaning, and fast on a phone. That is why the work looks like itself rather than like a theme.
Can you build a 3D website?
Yes. This site opens as an immersive 3D experience, and KP Studios opens on an interactive 3D wordmark. 3D is used where it says something and kept fast on a phone.
Can you do the brand as well as the site?
Yes, and it is usually the better way round. Wordmark, colour, type and the system they hang off, then a site that already knows what it is.
Do you make the film and photography too?
Yes. Campaign film and stills are produced in-house rather than briefed out, so the motion belongs to the brand instead of fighting it.
