Every one of these pages carries a piece of my journey... the late nights, the wrong turns, the tiny wins, and the people who never let me quit on myself. I come from a place where nothing was promised, so to see my work find space in these stories feels deeply surreal. Thankful to all these publications for the love, grateful beyond words to my family, my team, every mentor, collaborator, client, and friend who trusted me before there was proof. Still hungry, still learning, still building...with my heart firmly on my sleeve!!! ❤️🧿

✨🇮🇳@adidasindia x @aaquibw 🏆 Historic win last night, one that will inspire generations. To see the Women’s Team lift the ODI World Cup ‘25 in a jersey we designed is a dream you quietly hope for but never expect. From the heartbreak of the Mens ODI final in ‘23, to lifting the T20 Mens World Cup in ‘24, to winning the Champions Trophy earlier this year, and now watching history being written again… the pride, the joy, the goosebumps. Moments like this remind us why we do what we do. 🇮🇳💙 Here’s a complete look at all the kits through 2023-2024 & 2025 that we’ve had the honour of designing for both the men’s and women’s India national cricket teams. JAI HIND!

YOUR BOY MADE IT TO THE LIST!!! One of the biggest achievements I can call mine. The 15yr old me with possibly the worst academic background, accepting that I would amount to nothing is crying tears of joy and gratitude. . Here I am today, 14 years later, overwhelmed with emotions and humbled beyond words to be a part of this prestigious list. @forbesindia thank you. This makes me the first person from Kashmir to receive this award. . But I have not done this alone, I couldn’t have. The endless support of my family and friends and most importantly, my team who has backed every idea that I have had and helped me pull it through exactly as my vision - I thank and congratulate you all for this. . Still can’t believe it - Forbes India 30 under 30 - Design, 2021. Must have done something right 🙏🏻 . #aaquibwanidesign #aaquibwani #forbesindia #forbes #forbes30under30 #30under30

The @karanaujla P-Pop Culture India Tour was not just a series of concerts across India but a world we built from the ground up. Biggest Indian artist sold out stadium show in India. From shaping a 3-act narrative to designing stages that moved with the music, from crafting a visual language that flowed between 3D and live energy to engineering moments like lifts, zipline entries, and large-scale reveals, every detail was intentional. We brought together storytelling, stage design, visuals, choreography, and technology to create a seamless, high-impact experience. Not just for the artist on stage, but for every single person in the crowd. This was about scale, precision, and emotion, all working together in real time. Not just shows.

The @karanaujla x @aaquibw P-Pop Culture India Tour wasn’t just concerts but a world we built from scratch, India’s biggest stadium show by an Indian artist, where a 3-act narrative, moving stages, 3D-to-live visuals, and moments like lifts, ziplines, and large-scale reveals came together with storytelling, design, choreography, and tech to create one seamless experience for the artist and every person in the crowd, not just shows but a fully designed experience by Aaquib Wani Design.

@Apple Demo Day in Mumbai, India and I went there just to see the new stuff… came back with a MacbookPro M5 and an iPhone 17e. Not complaining. Thanks for the goodies, Apple. ❤️ @shiraz.bhavnani @vineetamangal @communicatorn92 ❤️❤️

SWIPE ➡️ @apdhillon x @aaquibw | One of One Tour: Stage Visuals Seven cities. Three stage formats. One evolving visual language. From early sketches and 3D explorations to real-time execution on show days, the visual world of the One of One tour was designed to move, scale, and adapt while staying deeply personal to each night. Every screen, cue, transition, and moment on stage was carefully built to support the music and amplify the energy of the room. No repeats, no shortcuts, just visuals responding live, city after city.
