On Visualizations:

1. The importance of good design

2. Design principles

3. A few examples

§1 Why is good design

important?

If a graph falls in the forest

and you’re not around to explain…

If a graph falls in the forest

…will anyone understand?

Paint a vivid picture

§2 VisualizationPrinciples

orHow to design without being

a graphic designer

6 rules to make your visualizations 80% better

1. Ask “What’s 1 thing viewers need to know?”

2. Ask “What happens if my main point fails?”

3. Everything on the page has a function.

4. Don’t accept defaults.

5. Remove chart-junk.

6. Don’t shout all the time.

You are here

1. Focus!

2. Context is your plan B.

3. Everything on the page has a function.

To look like a package of bed sheets?Made of wood?With a strapped down sign?That takes up 30% of the slide’s area?That still manages to float?

To tell you where to go to find the presentation?And what day is?In a bar that’s just as loud as any of the content?

1. Focus!

2. Context is your plan B.

3. Everything does something.

4. SO: Don’t accept defaults.

Are the defaults sufficient?
