Moleküldesigns

Moleküldesigns is a multidisciplinary design studio that translates molecular structures and scientific concepts into visual identities, products, and spatial installations. The practice blends graphic design, industrial design, and digital fabrication, with an emphasis on material honesty, sustainability, and accessible science communication.

The studio originated in the early 2010s and was founded by designers Elena Fischer and Luka Novak in Berlin. It began as a two-person operation and has since grown into a collaborative network across Europe, working with researchers, artists, and manufacturers to develop cross-disciplinary projects and products.

Design approach and notable works: Moleküldesigns often uses lattice motifs, bond diagrams, and reaction-inspired typographies to inform branding, product lines, and installations. Notable projects include the Molekül Collection furniture series using bio-based composites, an exhibition design for a science museum, and a series of scientific posters that reinterpret chemical formulas as typographic art.

Reception and impact: Critics and curators recognize the studio for bridging science and design, translating complex ideas into approachable visuals and tangible objects. Moleküldesigns has been featured in design journals and selected for design festivals, contributing to cross-disciplinary discourse and public engagement with science through design.

The studio continues to explore new fabrication methods, materials, and ways to communicate scientific concepts, aiming to influence both industry practice and cultural understanding of science.
