Science Skateboards
Description
Site features graphic design portfolio, skateboarding video, stills and sequences, and product range.
Science Skateboards was born out of a dedication to skateboarding. Based in London, we have worked on building the original project into a skateboarding and design company without any desire to compromise the skateboard culture from which it is was born.
The main aim is to produce real products of the highest quality that appeal to true skateboarders without catering to the latest trends or fads.
Science comes from the latin word 'Scientia' which simply translates as 'Knowledge'. Guest artists have been asked to create their own translation of this theme by being given a free reign to design each product range with a focus on creating a 'skateboard graphic', rather than graphics to be put on a skateboard.
Seven new ranges of decks and clothing have been designed by illustrators Jethro Haynes, Stevie Gee, Koadzn, Jon Burgerman, Mr Gauky and graphic design companies 'I Love Dust' and 'Hype Type Studio', all will be available as time goes on.
Running alongside the skateboard side of things is a fast growing design consultancy which has created design work for seminal UK skateboard store 50:50, leading graffiti collective 'They Made Me Do It', various music companies, artists, record labels, respected club nights and a lot more.
