About the kurzgesagt shop Bringing Science to Life Since 12,016
At kurzgesagt, we don't just explain science: we bring it to life. Every product is made with care, curiosity, and a love for thoughtful design. This is the story behind how and why we turn big ideas into beautiful products inspired by science.
Our Creation Process How we create products that spark curiosity.
Love For Science From The Very First Sketch
In the kurzgesagt product team, inspiration comes from everywhere: a new video topic, surprising fact, or just a weird, niche science obsession. Once an idea clicks, our illustrators sketch the first ideas that define the crucial next steps. From there, we explore, refine, and bring it to life.
Highest Quality Standards & Product Testing
Our team works closely with trusted producers to bring every detail to life, carefully selecting materials, testing samples in the office, and refining again and again. Nothing makes it to the shop until it meets our high standards for quality, character, and feel.
Fact-Checked and Expert Approved
The scientists and experts behind our YouTube videos also support our product development from start to finish. Especially our infographic posters and journals go though a rigorous review process to ensure they are accurate, clear, and genuinely engaging.
From Our Universe, To Yours
It brings us a lot of joy to see fellow kurzgesagt birbs wearing our creations, hanging them up at home, or giving them as gifts. And nothing makes us happier than seeing them become part of your world too.
Human Made, Always
Every product is researched, written, and designed by the talented humans behind kurzgesagt. From first sketch to final print, it's a product of time, love, and incredible human effort.
