Some Laboratories
(Collaborate with us)
We specialize in the experimental development of visual worlds. Some call us graphic designers, we prefer to see ourselves as "visual inventors". We also do this for brands and institutions ... and we can do it for you!
In the past we have successfully worked with companies and Institutions such as FILA Tennis Europe, Sachsenlotto, KaDeWe Berlin, Smart Automobile, Suzuki, Idee Shop, Rico, Absolut Vodka and others.
If you are interested in a collaboration with the Some Laboratories, please contact Prof. Sven Völker
