About the practice

A builder, with a wider lens.

Strategy, design, technology, and business, handled by the same person, on purpose.

I like bringing things into the world.

A tool for a musician. A brand with its own point of view. A clearer way for a business to reach people. The starting points change; the question stays the same. How do we make this idea real, and then real for other people?

I'm David Zambrano, an entrepreneur and product builder in Vancouver. I grew up in Colombia, studied Business Communication at University Canada West, and have spent the years since building products of my own and for other people.

Independent, not isolated.

This is a personal practice with a studio's range. You work directly with me, from the first conversation to the thing that ships. Where a project calls for expertise I don't have, the right collaborator is part of the plan, not a surprise.

Off the clock.

I play music and lead worship at a church here in Vancouver, which is where Unicue and KeyDetector come from. Real bands, real rehearsals, real problems worth solving. When the site gets too serious, there is a pinball machine hiding at the bottom of the page.

Work with me.

Bring me a website that needs to explain your business better, a product that needs to take shape, or a brand that needs a clear direction. The scope follows the problem, not a package. My own products keep that work honest.

A note on curiosity

The sketch matters, too.

I'm drawn to Leonardo and Michelangelo for the way they moved between disciplines, and for the thinking that stays visible in their sketches, models and unfinished work. That movement between an idea and its physical form is what I'm after.

A Renaissance influence. A contemporary practice.Explore the visual influences
