nirvana
Complete calm. The quiet the tools are built to protect, however much is going on around you.
About zennia
Built on a design system where calm is a rule, not a slogan.
Origin
The name
zennia joins two words: zen, for calm, and omnia, Latin for “everything”. We wanted a name for being everywhere and doing everything, without the noise that usually comes with it. It is written in lowercase, always, because it has no need to shout.
The wordmark
The two n's
The two n's in the wordmark are drawn in outline, left open. They stand for two words that sit at the centre of the name.
now
The present moment. Only what matters right now reaches you; everything else waits its turn.
Calm, held in the present. Drawn open, so there is always room to breathe.
Principles
What we hold to
01
Calm is the feature
Each screen asks for one thing at most. When in doubt, we remove.
02
Everywhere feels the same
A tool looks and works like zennia on a phone at 7am and a laptop at midnight.
03
Motion breathes
Things ease in and settle. Nothing bounces, flashes or nags.
04
Warmth is a choice
Tide is cool and clear; Ember is warm, for evenings and personal work. You choose in the footer, and only the colour changes.
People
Who we are
zennia is made by a small group of people who want zen without giving up omniscience: to stay calm, and still know everything that matters. We are building the tools we wanted for ourselves.
