The document discusses basic principles of graphic design such as visual hierarchy, color, scale, repetition, balance, grids, and typography. It provides examples of how these principles can be applied to create hierarchy and guide the eye through an information graphic using techniques like font size, color, line weight, scale of elements, layers, repetition of elements, and balanced composition.

transparency sheets in an anatomy textbook, with each sheet showing a unique and distinct category of data (skeleton, muscle, circulatory system, etc.), but when viewed all at once they show the complete picture of a person. Similarly, in AutoCAD, there can be any number of layers, with all of them holding their respective data and combining into the complete design
My take on additive and subtractive color theories, a Photoshop color correction method, (3-click color) and a few odds and ends related to correctly printing from a digital photographic file.

Data visualization is an interdisciplinary field that deals with the graphic representation of data. It is a particularly efficient way of communicating when the data is numerous as for example a time series.
No Screen First: An Evolving Approach For An Exclusive AudienceThomas O'Keefe
What is a “visualization” for someone who can’t see? How do you take something inherently visual—a rich, highly interactive data visualization—and make it usable for people across the spectrum of visual impairment, from color deficiency to blindness? How can we evolve our design and development approach to create solutions that work for everyone?
Senior Designer, Nguyet Vuong and Web Developer, Tommy O’Keefe from Atlantic Media Strategies team up to discuss what it means to design and develop for an inclusive audience in an agency setting and how no-screen-first is their evolving approach to integrating accessibility into their workflow. They’ll explore strategies and discuss learnings for creating accessible experiences that are inclusive and future-friendly.
