N + Z

Two brothers. One studio.

Nigel on a high mountain facing an enormous cosmic eye, a scene from N + Z’s own film.

Brothers. And collaborators.

You work directly with us, from the first idea to handover. We help you work out what your business needs and let you follow along as your website takes shape.

Nigel Schat

Design, build & interaction

I bring the design to life through imagery and code. I shape how your website looks, moves and responds, so visitors can find their way with ease.

Zino Schat

Concept & creative direction

I give the idea its story and visual direction. Through concepts, imagery and storyboards, I explore the atmosphere that fits your brand.

We design and build together. You bring your knowledge of your business; we turn it into a website with a character of its own.

From our idea to your scroll.

N + Z is our own project, too. It brings the story, imagery and website together. Three steps in how we made it.

Three pencil sketches: a brush behind a canvas, hands tearing the fabric open from behind, and a small figure in a landscape beneath an enormous eye. Explore the sketch

The idea

A blank canvas becomes the entrance to another world. This new concept sketch visualizes three moments from Zino’s storyboard: the brushstroke, the tear and the world beyond.

The film

Nigel brings those scenes to life. Imagery, movement and sound give the journey its rhythm.

Nigel on a mountain beneath a cosmic eye, a scene that forms part of the scroll website.

The website

Code connects the film to your scroll. Type slips behind the landscape and the imagery follows your pace. You can also go straight to our work.

A concept sketch and frames from our own film. Not a client project.
