Poor Graphic[edit]

Never Bitten, Twice Shy: The Real Dangers Of Summer


Drawback[edit]

Before we can redesing above graphic, we should discuss principle design guidelines.

  • Lie Factor: The graphic shows more design variation than data variation. The information is not clear and detailed.
  • Data-Ink: Data-ink ratio is redundant. The shark illustration is more dominand than rest of queue.
  • Color coding: It chart looks a little confuse because a viewer has no overview about relevant information. Background color and foreground color in table are not contrast.
  • Aestetic-Usability Effect: All symbols are to big along diagonal axis. Symbols more important than relevant information in tables.
  • Layout: The whole layout looks confuse. First of all you see a shark, than rest of chart and written text. This layout shows no relevant information about "The real dangers of summer".


New Graphic[edit]

Never Bitten, Twice Shy: The Real Dangers Of Summer (modified)


Modified[edit]

There are several aspects to remove or modify this graphic.

  • Determine the best medium to display. In this case we use a logarithmic graph. A logarithmic graph shows all categories in which a number of cases is different (e.g. shark attack: One of 6 million swimmers).
  • Reduce all graphic shapes and tables. Instead use one color graph for every category.
  • The data are not complete. The violet and blue line are broken. There are no exist significant data.
  • Remove left to right bar and use instead x/y coordination system to get a total overview.
  • Relevant information should be emphasize.
