Services
We work across a range of scales and formats - from single illustrations to full explanation systems. Every engagement starts with understanding what the work needs to do, and for whom.
EXPLANATION DESIGN
Explanation Design Systems
Reusable visual frameworks for complex concepts. We design the underlying system - the visual grammar, the narrative structure, the component library - so that explanation is consistent across an entire publication, platform, or campaign.
Research institutions - Publishers - Corporate communications
RESEARCH & IMPACT
Research & Impact Visualisation
Transforming research findings into public-facing explainers. Grant graphics, policy briefs, exhibition materials, and public engagement content - designed to make research genuinely accessible to non-specialist audiences.
Universities - Funders - Think tanks
DATA VISUALISATION
Data Visualisation & Interactive Design
Custom interactive and static visualisations for complex datasets. Built for the web or for print - designed to reveal insight rather than merely display data. From exploratory tools to single-purpose charts.
Publishers - Corporate - Agencies
PRODUCT EXPLAINERS
Product & Technology Explainers
Illustrated explanations of complex products, platforms, and technologies for non-technical audiences. Investor decks, onboarding materials, product documentation - designed to close the comprehension gap.

THE AUDIT
The Audit
A structured diagnostic of existing explanatory materials. We assess across six dimensions - vocabulary, structure, visual alignment, cognitive load, engagement, and audience calibration - and deliver a clear, prioritised report.

How we work together
01
Discovery
We start with a conversation about what you need and why. For larger projects, this becomes a paid discovery phase - a structured investigation of the subject matter, the audience, and the brief.
02
Proposal
We send a clear proposal with scope, deliverables, timeline, and price. No hourly rates, no ambiguity. You know exactly what you're getting.
03
Delivery
We work iteratively with regular check-ins. Final deliverables are fully documented and handed over cleanly - source files, assets, and guidance for whoever uses the work next.
