Studio
User Unfriendly.
We’re champions of UX and UI, but there’s one ubiquitous little word that can rub us the wrong way – ‘user’.
Technology can have a weird effect on people. In the pursuit of faster, smarter, shinier, it’s easy to forget the most important adjective – closer.
At its best, technology enables us to be more human. To engage. Feel. Share. It doesn’t just make things happen, it brings people closer. We see this as the biggest responsibility of a digital studio. So while you’ll still catch us using the word ‘user’, rest-assured, our digital experiences are 100% human-centred and full of heart.
Values maketh the studio
Into the unknown
‘What if?’ – these two little words are behind every innovation. From the spark in our hearts, to the fire in our belly, curiosity is our calling and we let it sing.
Embrace contrast
Meaningful connection is what we’re all about, but only by embracing diverse thinking, can we bring new ideas to life. Different is good. It’s a spirit that unites us.
Know no bounds
When you’re at the top of your game, don’t look down – guide others, and aspire for more. We believe high standards aren’t a benchmark, they’re a starting point.
Another day in paradise!
We believe that by caring deeply for our people and clients, we can create magic. It’s about knowing how special what we’ve got is, and nurturing it.
We ride together, die together. We roll up our sleeves to get the hard stuff done, and leave no Nightjar behind. We strike the balance between work and play. It's kind of a no-brainer but to be the best digital studio, we need the best people. And we need them at their best.
It’s a culture of shared experiences, shared jokes, shared snacks. And we wouldn’t want to be anywhere else than our sunny Sydney studio. (ok, maybe on a European holiday but that's hard to compete with).
Illuminate the Shadows
There’s a difference between like and love.
Good design is all about feeling. So while UX research and UX / UI design are the keystone of what we do, we’re driven by something more – the desire to create meaningful connection.
Every decision has the potential to transform the way customers experience your brand or product. That’s why we don’t just stop when we’ve solved a problem, we illuminate the shadows in every brief. Going above and beyond the remit of a conventional digital agency, we strive to uncover how your brand can ellicit powerful emotions and form strong bonds with your audiences. It all starts with connection.
Optimism
Progress is better than perfection.
Action is better than motion.
The time is now. Let’s Design Forward.
