Studio
A studio that stopped debating
Nord is a product studio in Ittigen near Bern. We work AI-native: strategy, design and engineering do not run in sequence, they run in the same pass.

Swiss precision
A clear grid, generous whitespace, typographic hierarchy. No decoration for its own sake — every element has to earn its place.
Dark as the ground
Light type on a dark ground is the identity, not an option. The light appearance exists because reading in daylight has to work too.
Mono, serif, sans
Mono for labels, numbers and navigation — that is the engineering voice. Serif for headlines, because a report needs authority. Sans for body copy, because it is meant to be read.
- Framework
- Astro 5
- Zero JavaScript by default. Interactive parts as islands. We ship HTML, not an SPA.
- Styling
- Tailwind CSS 4
- Custom tokens on a utility base. The same thing that runs in production anyway.
- 3D
- Three.js
- Raw Three.js rather than a wrapper, so the draw sits in the same frame as compositing.
- Deployment
- Cloudflare Pages
- Global edge, free TLS, a deploy on every merge. Our standard for years.
- Content
- Typed data modules
- Every entry bilingual and type-checked. Figures on the page are computed from the data so they cannot drift apart.
How a project runs with us
No pitch theatre and no concept phase that eats three months. We start small, put something usable in front of you early, and build on from there.
- 01
Conversation
An hour spent understanding what you actually need — and saying so plainly if there is a simpler answer than hiring us.
- 02
First version
Within weeks there is something you can use. Not a clickable mock-up — running code on real infrastructure.
- 03
Build-out and operation
We extend what proves itself and keep it running. You own the code and the infrastructure — not a dependency on us.
