In nature, innovative design determines the success of a species in the course of evolution. As in nature, design in the network of visual language means, the union of graphic design and the conscious use of typography as a creative process, determines the quality and comprehensibility of a message.Illustration
Illustrating is not simply the depiction of the habitus and surface structure of a living being in fine quality as photography can do, but also to express its essence and its organism in a comprehensible and understandable way.Visualization
The visualization of natural processes in the form of diagrams is able to articulate complex scientific facts without language barriers.Design
