Production Designer | Art Director | Architect

I’m Zainab — an architect who swapped floor plans for film sets and never looked back.

My love for design began with blueprints, but it truly came alive in the magical chaos of movie sets. So in 2017, I followed the camera—straight into the heart of Indian cinema—working with some of the industry’s biggest production houses, like Dharma Productions, Red Chillies Entertainment etc. (Yes, the Bollywood dream is very real!)

In 2022, I brought my toolkit and ambition to Dubai, diving headfirst into the world of commercials and brand films. My approach? Detail-obsessed, concept-driven, and all-in—determined to make my mark (and probably sneak in a few extra plants and props along the way).

If you’re looking for visuals that do justice to the story, I’m probably already building a moodboard. 😉
