raumlabor berlin Infographics Static infographics. Our bread and butter. We are creating more static infographics on a daily basis than we can possibly count anymore. The reason for this is that companies have begun to fully embrace the power of infographics, and HOW they can be used. We create static infographics for blog content, revamped powerpoint presentations, tradeshow posters, brochures, email campaigns, annual reports, investor decks, posters….You name it, we’ve created a static infographic for it. The question then becomes, Why Infographic World?

Visualising Data Territory Studio The Motley Roots of Data Visualization in 19th Century Census Charts - Design The U.S. Census has long been a lightning rod for controversy. Does it wildly undercount minorities? Wildly overcount minorities? Or—as Michelle Bachmann warned us—is it a liberal plot orchestrated by ACORN? But no one has ever accused our Census Bureau of being a hotbed of…graphic design. A Handsome Atlas celebrates Uncle Sam’s data chops by reproducing three Statistical Atlases from the latter decades of the 19th century. Soma unearthed the Atlases by chance. Soma organized the 384 plates into eight topics—from manufacturing to mortality—and eight "visualizations" including bar graphs, maps, and pie charts. One plate is so handsome, Soma actually un-digitized it. Of course this stuff isn’t just suitable for framing. Curious footnotes in American history pop up everywhere, as Soma discovered when he spotted an apparent flaw in a U.S. map. The first Statistical Atlas of the United States of America was published in 1874 to coincide with the nation’s centennial.
