Rezo Zero

What Rezo Zero does

Rezo Zero SARL is a privately held French digital creative agency founded in 2013 and headquartered at 25 rue du Bât d'Argent in Lyon, with a stated extension office in Paris. The firm designs and develops bespoke brand identities and tailor-made digital solutions, with a service portfolio spanning strategy, art direction, UI/UX design, front- and back-end development, e-commerce, custom admin systems, and AR/VR experiences. Its work is delivered through direct project-based engagements to a clientele weighted toward French public-sector cultural institutions (opera houses, theaters, museums, music institutions, ministries, municipalities) with selective exposure to corporate enterprises (Safran, Teva Santé, Truffle Capital, Furlan Marri, Modelec, Mingat) and small creative studios.

The agency's technical foundation rests on Roadiz, an open-source content management system and development framework built by Rezo Zero on Symfony PHP, publicly maintained on GitHub and reused across client engagements. It is complemented by custom REST API development using the API Platform framework — for example middleware connecting editorial content with ticketing platforms for Opéra national du Rhin and Théâtre de la Ville — and by Nuxt.js for headless front-end implementations such as the Mingat vehicle-rental platform. Recent project work also demonstrates real-time WebGL product visualization (Modelec) and immersive virtual exhibitions (Expodcast for Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles).

Commercially, Rezo Zero operates as a professional services boutique with custom-quoted project pricing, no public rate card, and no disclosed external funding. Revenue is generated through direct client relationships, portfolio-led acquisition, and inbound enquiries, with no resellers or marketplace distribution. The legal entity is Rezo Zero SARL, with Julien Blanchet listed as Director of Publication, suggesting founder-led operations.
