About Us
Designed and crafted for the sophisticated adventurer
Wndsn's Applied Science Lab, based in Berlin, develops and manufactures low-tech, high-utility tools and instruments with the objective of providing or enhancing "that, which can't be improvised" in low-probability, high-impact scenarios where it is most needed, yet usually unavailable or non-permissive. The resulting products are measurement, calculation, and exploration instruments informed by the motto "Ex Mensura, Scientia" -- knowledge from measurement.
Products
Wndsn creates custom-built instruments and multi-purpose tools, measurement & illumination solutions with applications in urban reconnaissance, hostile theaters, disaster areas, and outdoor exploration. Additionally, designing expedition mementos and morale patches to celebrate cross-disciplinary exploration and achievement. Wndsn morale patches are acutely designed -- no line is left to randomness, no element is mere filler. They serve as infographics, how-tos for the Wndsn tools, magic sigils, as well as functional markers.
