About us
Softwareshouldfeelalive,notloud
zucchiniux is a six-person product studio. We exist because most software is either dead-serious and dull, or animated into chaos. There is a middle. We live there.
What we believe
Motion with manners
Animation should explain, not decorate. Every transition we ship answers "what just happened?" before it entertains.
Small is a feature
Six people means no telephone game between "the designer" and "the developer". You talk to the person doing the work.
Static by default
We pre-render everything we can. Fast sites are a courtesy to users, and courtesy compounds.
Naps are strategy
Our cat taught us this one. Rested people make better calls than heroic ones. We do not do crunch.
The short history
Nine years, five lines
Marta freelances under the name "zucchini" — a vegetable nobody else had taken.
First hire. First office. First cat, who immediately claims the warmest chair.
The "ux" gets appended. zucchiniux.com registered at 2am after a launch party.
Studio caps at six people, on purpose. We start turning down more work than we take.
47 products shipped. The cat has approved every single one by sleeping through the demo.
