Scientific and Technical Illustration

Well-designed illustrations can simplify complex concepts into clear, understandable visuals. Technical illustrations are particularly useful in demonstrating the assembly, maintenance, and usage of a product, as well as revealing the inner mechanics of machinery, the steps of an industrial process, or the design of a product.

  • Visualize subjects we can’t see such as molecules

  • Visualize theoretical ideas

  • Present complex concepts in simple, easy-to-understand ways

  • Envision extinct organisms and ecosystems

  • Clearly show how a product, system, or process works

  • Emphasize important aspects of a subject

How much will it cost?

Every project is different. The cost of an illustration depends on a variety of factors. 

  • Level of complexity

  • Size of illustration

  • Number of illustrations

  • What the illustrations will be used for

  • Deadline - Is it a rush job?

  • Are extra revisions needed?

  • Amount of research involved

"It's rare to find a media team that can conceptualize and translate your vision into reality. Rick and Science Lab Studios did just that and produced an accurate and beautiful botanical illustration in a short window of time. They were a pleasure to work with."
