I’m Aymane —
A quiet maker of Small Universes
I notice light. I’ve been drawing since before I could write. Now I do it with code.
A star drawn in dots: a white-hot core warming to peach, golden dust around it, and four long points of light.
Before anything takes shape, it has to come apart.
A star burst. From its dust, a planet took shape.
Saturn drawn in dots: peach bands on the planet, its rings tilted around it.
The Maker: Small, Patient Details
I don’t fill rooms — I notice them. I’ve always been the quiet one, more at home watching than performing. That’s where the work comes from: a love of small, patient details — the right easing curve, the soft edge of a shadow, the moment a page finally breathes.
I build the way I drew as a kid: slowly, and for the love of it. Only now, other people get to live inside what I make. I care less about looking impressive than about being honest — quiet interfaces that feel considered, and a little bit alive.
Dot by dot. I've never known another way to make something.
Every world is made of smaller things. These are mine.
The Craft: What I’m drawn to
The tools I reach for and the things that pull my eye — connected, because the way I see is the way I build.
A constellation of what I am drawn to: Photography, Drawing and Motion above; React, TypeScript, Next.js and GSAP below; Three.js / R3F in the middle, where they meet.
The Voyage
Then I stepped back, far enough to see the whole system.
I like to zoom out. That's where the small things start to make sense.
Down to the third planet: the places I carry with me.
The Earth
Wherever I go, I carry a camera, not to keep the places, but the light.
The Earth drawn in dots: peach continents, blue oceans, and pins on London, the New Forest and Morocco.
The Lab
Out past the Earth, a small probe keeps looping toward the Sun.
It never flies straight at the Sun. It loops — and every loop takes it a little closer. That's how I learn.
The Parker Solar Probe beside a big Sun, on its loops around it, each one closer: the closest passes 6.1 million km from the Sun.
The Way Out
From the probe, back out to the whole system.
Up close, it's all details. From here, it's one quiet system. That's what I try to build.
Further still, until the Sun is one star among billions.
The Milky Way
A hundred billion stars, and we still find each other.
The Milky Way drawn in dots: a warm core, spiral arms of peach and blue, and one dot marked “You are here”.
And somewhere in all of it, you’re reading this.

Say Hello
Parker carries over a million names toward the Sun. Leave yours here, and I’ll write back.
Your name, an address I can reply to, and a few words.
