About

One studio, many surfaces.

JZ Studio is a one-person operation working across mobile apps, software experiments, card games and apparel. Every project — from the Madeira trail apps to ZLEGEND — is designed, built and shipped in-house.

The work sits at the intersection of utility and obsession: tools for the places I love, interfaces I want to use, and objects I want to wear.
