Vincent Tantardini

Vincent Tantardini designs software the way some people make coffee: with precision, obsession and an irrational fear of overcomplication. After a decade floating through startups, corporate teams and tech chaos, he’s now happily marooned on a tiny island of his own making, building Frames, a film photography app for people who still think “grain” is beautiful and metadata should be hand-picked like herbs.

By day he crafts interfaces that feel invisible. By night he debates shutter speeds with himself and quietly stares at his own icon designs like they’re fine wine. He doesn't track you, doesn't sell your data, and he’ll never ask you to “smash that like button.” The apps he builds don’t scream. They whisper. They do their job, get out of the way and let you feel smart.

Vincent believes software should have manners. It should sit quietly on your phone, respect your time, and clean up after itself.
