Dmitri Basov
Columbia University, USA

“I have had a pleasure of working with Ella and Alex since the inception of Ella Maru Studio back in 2014. Ella’s images are always graphically stunning, esthetically pleasing and technically accurate. Time and again, I experienced Alex’s acute sense of nuances and his ability to transform abstract concepts into concrete graphics solutions implemented by Ella. Be it a cover proposal for the next “big” paper, a logo for a new collaborative Center, an arresting power-point animation Ella Maru Studio is peerless in its ability to produce an outstanding solution. Always on time! Over the years, Ella and Alex became important partners of our activities in quantum materials @ Columbia.”

Charalampos Pappas
University of Freiburg, Germany

“I first contacted Ella and Alex during my PhD studies asking for a potential cover image on a Nature Nanotechnology publication. I was amazed by the outcome and the significant attention that the ‘‘starry night nanofibres’’caught within the scientific community and social media. Since then, we had developed a wonderful collaboration, where the studio created amazing images for manuscripts, cover images and schematics for my research website. I am very grateful, given that from our interaction, I realise that science and art are two sides of the same coin and particularly thankful for the time and the dedication that the studio puts on my projects, despite the fact that there are always tight deadlines and limited time. I never worry about high quality graphics- I know who are the best to ask for help!”

Arnaud Fihey
Université de Rennes, France

“It was a very nice experience to work with Ella Maru and coworkers for our cover. They took into account our ideas and feedback and transcribed them nicely into an artwork that followed the guidelines and quality expectations of a high impact factor journal. Moreover, their experience in creating covers and the quality of their art, allowed us to get promoted to a front cover, when we originally submitted for a back cover.”

Sven Rogge
Ghent University

Upon referral of colleagues in the field, we first contacted Ella Maru Studio a few years back. Since then, we’ve regularly hired the professional services of Ella and Alex as their creative ability to convert complex scientific results into wonderful and explanatory illustrations is unmatched. They’re committed to go the extra mile, from the original image concept to fine tuning the details. As a result, the cover images we received from Ella Maru Studio were systematically well-received by the community.
