Excellent science needs excellent design.

Hi, we are the Science Communication Lab, specialized in developing innovative visual communication for the sciences and for complex, explanation intensive projects and products.

We are a design studio based in Kiel, Germany, focusing in providing innovative visual communication specifically for the sciences and for complex, explanation intensive projects and products. The uniqueness of the Science Communication Lab is that it combines classical disciplines of science communication such as journalism and public outreach activities with advanced design and visualization skills. Numerous high-profile awards such as the German Design Award confirm this.

We support you to transfer your research topics into demanding visualizations. We develop interactive posters, animations, information graphics, digital exhibits or data visualizations for the transfer of knowledge in your team as well as for public communication.

Our mission is to make scientific research
more visible and comprehensible.

We are a small but fine team of designers, technological developers and scientists. We grow carefully with our tasks and are constantly looking for new challenges. Technological developments play an important role. But even more important to us is that we deeply understand the scientific topics we are designing and that we support the scientific work with our visualizations in the best conceivable way.

Cooperation opportunities

We are always interested in cooperating with dedicated 3D designers, creative coders and also communication-oriented scientists. If you are interested in working with us or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us!
