8 Principles of information architecture. [Key Points from the book "Eight Principles of Information Architecture" by Dan Brown]
~
1. Principle of objects: Treat content as a living, breathing thing with a lifecycle, behaviors, and attributes.
2. Principle of choices: Create pages that offer meaningful choices to users, keeping the range of choices available focused on a particular task.
3. Principle of disclosure: Show only enough information to help people understand what kinds of information they’ll find as they dig deeper.
4. Principle of exemplars: Describe the contents of categories by showing examples of the contents.
5. Principle of front doors: Assume at least half of the website’s visitors will come through some page other than the home page.
6. Principle of multiple classifications: Offer users several different classification schemes to browse the site’s content.
7. Principle of focused navigation: The principle of focused navigation – Don’t mix apples and oranges in your navigation scheme.
8. Principle of growth: Assume the content you have today is a small fraction of the content you will have tomorrow.

For #worldorcaday I've found an amazing infographic provided by @hakaimag that displays the critical differences between resident and transient killer whales that not only concern their diet but which are multifaceted. Orca simply isn't just Orca #marinewildlifetourism #orca #southernresidents #transients #didyouknow •

“Dear Data” was a yearlong data drawing collaboration by @giorgialupi (prior to joining Pentagram as a partner) and the London-based information designer @stefpos. Each week, for a year, the designers sent each other a transatlantic postcard with analog, hand-drawn data describing what had happened during the week. Over the course of the self-initiated project, the pair became good friends, using data as their primary source of communication.
.
Every Monday the designers chose a particular subject or theme on which to collect data about themselves for the whole week: how often they complained; the times they felt envious; the positive thoughts they had; the sounds they heard. They then created a drawing representing this data on a postcard-sized sheet of paper, and dropped it into the mail.
.
The designers documented the project in the book “Dear Data” (2016), which reproduced the original 52 pairs of postcards, followed by “Observe, Collect, Draw!: A Visual Journal” (2018), a guide for readers to create their own visual languages for their data. The original postcards are in the permanent collection of @themuseumofmodernart. See dear-data.com for more info.

Design on the Road | 7. Do all roads really lead to Rome? The designers Benedikt Gross and Philipp Schmidt tried to find out by working with the digital geographer Raphael Reimann to design a data visualisation of the most efficient road routes to Rome from all over Europe. And by “all over”, they meant from 486,713 stating points across the continent. (Yes, even in poor, Brexit-stricken, Boris-dreading Britain.) They then developed an algorithm to identify the smartest route from each of those places. This delicate web of spidery lines is the result. The closer you zoom in on different places in the interactive map (at http://roadstorome.movielab.com/countries) the more geographic details will be revealed. In a nod to the efficiency with which Ancient Romans designed and built roads in many of their conquests, the more frequently a real road is used as a means of reaching Rome on the map, the more prominently it appears.

We’re thrilled to announce @giorgialupi, the award-winning information designer who takes a humanistic approach to data, has joined our NY office as partner. Link in bio.
.
Giorgia joins from @accuratstudio, the acclaimed data-driven research, design and innovation design firm she co-founded. In her practice, she challenges the impersonality of data, designing engaging visual narratives that reconnect numbers to what they stand for: stories, people, ideas.
.
Take a peek at a few images of Giorgia’s work in this slideshow. The pictured projects were completed at Accurat and include collaborations with @triennalemilano @kakigram @themuseumofmodernart @starbucks @deardatapostbox @stefpos.
