Behind Texni Labs is one person.

Artem Makarov, Munich: Gesellenbrief as an Elektroniker, then software, data and design. The order explains the studio.

I’m Artem Makarov — developer, designer and automation engineer in one person. Texni Labs is deliberately a one-person studio: whoever works with me talks to the person who designs, builds and ships. No handovers between trades, no friction losses, no agency chain — one clearly scoped brief, one person responsible.

My benchmark comes from industry: in a previous employed role I worked on industrial plant programming in the wind-energy field — where software is not allowed to work “most of the time”. I bring that care into every project, from a trade business to a data tool.

Texni comes from τέχνη — the Greek word that means craft and art at once. The red chimera is its heraldic beast: one body, many natures. Web, automation, data, design, software — different limbs of the same animal.

Staff

The Staff

“Behind Texni Labs is one person.” That statement is incomplete.

Personnel file 01

Lilu

In service since

2023

Origin

Animal shelter

Position

Interrupt handling

Method

Jumps onto the laptop the moment it rests on a lap and occupies the keyboard. Attention is not negotiable.

Temperament

Two states. The transition condition is unknown.

Note

Bites. Is revered regardless. Not a contradiction — the contract.
Personnel file 02

Farah

In service since

2024

Origin

Animal shelter

Position

Materials testing

Method

Dismantles pencils and ballpoint pens. Repeated assaults on the display.

Finding

No writing instrument has passed. The display is still pending.

Unsupervised access

When the operator leaves the workstation, the keyboard is occupied. No records of these sessions exist. The suspicion of crypto transfers cannot be substantiated.

Lilu takes absence badly. The longer it lasts, the clearer the verdict.

He is the reason this studio has no office.

The cats never leave the house either.

Two natures
