(Brand, digital and motion studio)

(00) Studio

Zeekade 14, Rotterdam · Est. 2014

Fourteen people, one table

Designers, animators and developers in an old shipping office on the Maas. We work with a few clients at a time, so each one gets the whole studio.

(01) About

We started as two designers who were tired of handing a logo to someone else to animate.

Ductus means the order and direction of the strokes that make a letter. It is how we work: the brand, the site and the motion are drawn together, in one direction.

Twelve years later we are fourteen, and we still take on around twelve projects a year. Most clients come back for the next one.

What we believe

01

Show it in use

We never present a logo on a white page. Every direction arrives on a bag, a screen or a moving frame, so you judge what people will actually see.

02

One team, start to finish

The designer who draws your mark also animates it and sits next to the developer who builds the site. Nothing gets lost between agencies.

03

Fewer, better things

A brand needs ten pieces that work, not a hundred that sort of do. We help you pick the ten.

04

Leave you independent

Every project ends with files, templates and a guide your team can run without us. You call us because you want to, not because you have to.
