Good designfor nice people.
We believe that good storytelling, smart design, and the right technology will solve the world’s toughest challenges.
What is a datastory?
Everyone has data.
Big and small data both work.
+ Organize and clean your data+ Know your audience+ Distill your story (what’s the point?)+ Personalize it
Golden rules
+ Narrow the data more than you think+ If you have to explain it, it’s not intuitive+ As why people will care+ Squint and see if it make sense
What we learned.
+ Sometimes you have to work for the story+ Kill your darlings+ Apply the rule of 6, 30, 60+ What’s the ‘dinner party takeaway?’
More lessons.
+ Simple can be beautiful+ Timing is important+ Personalization is king+ Technological approach matters
More lessons.
+ Make it easy for your user to understand+ Identify your audience+ Simplify and streamline+ Know your takeaways
