Service introduction
About our educational illustration service
Educational illustrations should make ideas easier to understand, not just decorate the page.
We turn learning objectives into simple, accurate visuals with consistent style across a book or course.
Teaching aids
Illustration that explains rather than decorates
An educational illustration succeeds when a student understands something faster because of it, which usually means removing detail rather than adding it.
We work out what the image has to teach, then strip everything that competes with it. Colour is used to group and distinguish, not to fill space. Diagrams are drawn in vector so the same artwork works in a printed textbook, on a worksheet and projected on a classroom screen without going soft.
- Detail reduced to what the concept actually requires
- Colour used to group and distinguish, not decorate
- One vector file that works in print and projection
