Zerothirteen is a small crew of artists, creatives, designers, coders, and makers. We come from diasporic homes and mixed histories. Late-night design experiments and DIY scenes protest streets, basements, community spaces, club floors. We carry those spaces into everything we make.

We're inspired by people around us, the ones who make the city pulse—artists, organizers, and those who find beauty in the cracks and bring new energy to old problems. Our studio is a space for ideas to grow, for connections to spark, and for creativity to have a playground.
What we do.
- Brand Identity & Visual SystemsIdentities and the systems that hold them together across every surface.
- Web Design & DevelopmentSites we design and build ourselves — fast, accessible, owned end to end.
- Art Direction & Creative DirectionSetting the visual direction and holding it across a project or campaign.
- Brand Strategy & DiscoveryThe thinking before the design — positioning, voice, and what the work must do.
The people
we move with.
A studio is a network. The work is made with collaborators, institutions, and the communities it’s for — a searchable directory is in the making.

The studio & the community
We design reliable systems of collaboration to connect and activate creative networks.
We’re the studio for activists who dance through protests, artists who refuse to shush, and awesome people who believe art & creativity can change a world gone BANANAS! We aim at building a creative network where artists, designers, strategists, and technologists collaborate on challenging projects, share knowledge, co-own outcomes, and grow together.
