Custom scientific visualization for medical, veterinary, and research professionals.
Illustration, animation, and infographic design built around your science, your audience, and your goal.
What you’ll get
An accurate representation of your science, designed for your specific audience
Confidence that every deliverable has been reviewed for both accuracy and clarity
Visuals that communicate independently, no caption required
A process built around your project, not a template
CUSTOM PROJECTS
Science that speaks for itself.
Whether you need an illustration, animation, or infographic, every project at Lectotype starts with the same questions: what does your audience need to understand, and what is the most direct, accurate way to show it? The format follows the science, not a template, not a format menu.
The result: A visual your audience can trust and act on, without a caption, a slide full of text, or a second read.
ARTWORK LICENSING
Use existing work for your project.
Not every project requires something built from scratch. If an existing illustration from the Lectotype portfolio fits your needs, you can license it directly for use in your publication, presentation, or educational materials.
Licensing covers a defined scope of use agreed on at time of purchase.

PROCESS
How every project works.
One consistent process across all deliverable types. You always know what stage your project is at, what is expected from you at each step, and when to expect the next milestone.
01
Concept Development
This is where we define the core concept and structure: accuracy, messaging, hierarchy, and flow. It is the most critical stage of the process. Getting it right here is what prevents headaches later.
02
Production
With the concept approved, we move into building out the visuals in full. This phase is about refinement and execution, bringing the direction to life with precision.
03
Handoff
We wrap up, deliver your final files, and make sure you feel confident using everything. No loose ends, no confusion. Just a clean handoff.
FAQs
How far in advance should I reach out?
Projects are typically booked 1 to 3 months in advance. If you have a specific deadline, the earlier you reach out, the better. Projects can take several months to complete and often require additional information before a start date can be confirmed.
Do you offer payment plans?
I request 50% before the project begins and 50% on completion. If alternative arrangements are needed, indicate this in the questionnaire.
I don’t see work representing my topic in the portfolio.
The case studies are a representative sample, not a complete record. The core principles of every project — accuracy, clarity, and visual problem solving — apply regardless of specific topic or style. If you're looking for something you do not see, reach out. I've likely worked on something similar, or I am open to the new challenge.
