Make precise things, ship them quietly.
We don't try to be the loudest studio. We make a small number of things, slowly, and we maintain them as if they were ours to live in. Because some of them are.

A small lab that
pretends to be quiet.
Nano is a one-table studio. We design typefaces, kits, and tools for product teams that care about the surface — and the millisecond underneath.
One project at a time. Sometimes two.
We work with a handful of teams each year on private engagements: product surfaces, design systems, brand foundations. We don't pitch. We don't bid. If the fit's right, we say yes.
Type. Kits. Code. Sound.
Our shop is the public side of the studio. Everything in it has already been used in private work — the version you see has just been tightened, documented, and licensed.
Tools we trust.

Three things people ask.
Where are you based?
We're a distributed team of three. Mostly Europe, mostly evenings. Our shipping address is in Estonia — that's where the studio is registered.
Why is the catalogue so small?
Because we maintain everything we ship. Six items is what three people can keep current without cutting corners.
Do you take on private projects?
Sometimes. We pick one or two each year, usually with teams we've worked with before. If you're new to us, write us anyway — we keep notes.
