About

We are a small studio. We take on a handful of projects a year and finish every one of them properly.

Nootsius was founded in 2021 and works across identity, motion and interface. We are deliberately small — the people you meet are the people who do the work.

We prefer long engagements to quick ones, and we would rather ship one considered thing than five hurried ones.

(Why we exist)

Most brands don’t need more noise. They need one clear idea, carried all the way through.

(What we hold to)

Small on purpose

Every project is led by the people who pitched it. No hand-offs, no junior B-team.

Long over quick

We stay after launch — refining, measuring and growing the work with the teams who own it.

Finished, not shipped

Details are the work. We keep going until the last page reads as well as the first.

(Our story)

Five years, one room, and a habit of saying no to the wrong work.

2021

Started in a single room

Two designers, one borrowed desk and a first identity for a Tashkent café that is still open.

2022

Motion joins the studio

Brand films and title sequences became part of every identity, not an afterthought.

2024

First international work

Aeon Capital and Marée took the studio to Europe and the Gulf — still with a team of four.

2026

Six people, same rule

Bigger clients, the same promise: the people who pitch the work are the people who make it.

(The people)

Small enough to know every project by heart.
