We revel in bringing scientific concepts and approaches to a wide audience.
If you have a programme, a project or a concept and you’re not sure how to give it traction, you’ll find us eager to understand it and full of ideas for techniques, media and platforms. If you know exactly what you need, all the better.
We love the challenge.
Scientists and designers don’t always talk the same language. We certainly don’t claim to be scientists ourselves, but we believe strongly in the scientific method and pride ourselves in our ability to understand even the most abstract of concepts and translate them to a visual format.
We consult closely with our clients and make sure we have the information we need before we start a project.
We specialise in visualising data to concisely and accurately convey its meaning.
This may be in the form of graphs, charts or maps, and can incorporate time-based, geographical and multi-layered information from virtually any source.
We have the technical ability, but what’s more important is our ability to recognise the style of visualisation that will show the information most clearly.
Our visualisations can accept live data and update in real time.
We also do static and interactive infographics.
We create accurate, clear and engaging documents that give easy and logical access to the content.
We pride ourselves on attention to detail and have decades of experience in all of the technical aspects of large documents, including references, bibliographies, credits and indices that are accurate and conform to academic standards.
We’ve managed print on hundreds of documents and know how to get the most out of the process.
By doing thorough research into our audience and their needs, we create sites that are relevant, speedy and optimised. From educational (we love doing educational sites) to technical or commercial, we develop sites that resonate.
The interaction between a speaker and their audience is different to any other visual interaction. We’ve studied how it works and know how to make presentations that allow the audience to engage.
Our presentations are dynamic without being distracting and give the presenter flexibility rather than forcing them to follow a script (especially when we include an element of data vis).
We also do explanatory videos for online distribution.
We don’t just art direct shoots – we can create concepts, develop shot lists, source locations, props and talent, prepare call sheets and wrangle whatever is required to get the most out of the images.
We have long-term relationships with many leading photographers and videographers, and have handled all sorts of shoots.
