Rebuilding qbiq.ai: A Seamless Fusion of Design, Performance, and Interactivity

The qbiq.ai website was reimagined to serve as both a digital showcase and an interactive platform that reflects the company’s leadership in architectural intelligence. Developed entirely on the Webflow platform, the site translates the qbiq.ai team’s design vision into a high-performance, dynamic experience. Every aspect of the build was tailored to balance visual storytelling with advanced technical execution.

Project Overview

The qbiq.ai team provided detailed design files, and from there, the goal was to create a fast, responsive, and visually engaging website. Beyond pixel-perfect implementation, this project called for custom development work that extended Webflow’s native capabilities—enhancing media handling, interactivity, and performance optimization.

The site is structured for both marketing impact and ease of future content updates, thanks to Webflow’s CMS features. It is also highly responsive, loading quickly and smoothly across mobile, tablet, and desktop devices.

Custom JavaScript Video Component

One of the core technical achievements on the site is a fully custom video loader, written in JavaScript. Instead of embedding all video content upfront, which can harm performance, the component was designed to:

• Load each video only when it becomes visible on the screen.
• Manage multiple video instances on a single page without conflicts.
• Allow smooth transitions between poster image and playback.
• Maintain responsiveness across breakpoints.

This results in a dramatic improvement in load times, reduced bandwidth usage, and a better user experience on slower connections.

Advanced Sliders Using Splide.js

To support interactive carousels across several sections of the website, I implemented Splide.js, a lightweight and extensible JavaScript slider library. These sliders are customized to:

• Include smooth easing animations and staggered transitions.
• Support swipe and keyboard navigation.
• Fit seamlessly into the Webflow DOM without performance tradeoffs.
• Allow full control over styling and behavior, beyond Webflow’s built-in slider limitations.

From case studies to client logos and feature highlights, the sliders contribute significantly to the site’s polished, dynamic presentation.

Hero Animation with CSS and SVG

The homepage opens with a fully custom hero animation built using SVG and CSS only—no external libraries. This lightweight solution allows:

• Crisp, scalable visuals that perform well across resolutions.
• Rapid loading with no animation flicker or delay.
• Fine-tuned keyframe control for smooth motion.

By avoiding Lottie or large image sequences, this method ensures that the animation enhances the experience without slowing it down.

Timed Accordions and Animation Logic

Throughout the site, accordion sections were implemented to break content into easily digestible pieces. These aren’t standard Webflow interactions—they were custom-built with JavaScript to support:

• Timed, animated expansion and collapse sequences.
• Synchronized transitions with adjacent content.
• Controlled playback of animations during accordion reveals.
• Optimized height transitions to prevent layout shift.

This solution was used in key storytelling sections to let users engage at their own pace while keeping the layout visually stable and fluid.

Final Outcome

The finished qbiq.ai website is a blend of visual precision and custom-built functionality. From optimized media loading to micro-interactions and motion design, every element was crafted to support a smooth and purposeful user experience. The build showcases how custom development on top of Webflow can unlock advanced capabilities while maintaining design integrity.

The result is a high-impact, fully responsive website that reflects qbiq.ai’s innovative approach in the architecture and AI space.
