I picked out these designs because to me they were very visually expressive and had a nice design which was easy for me to follow. Personally, I dont enjoy looking at things that lack the artistic touch that I would involve in order to swoop in my audience and give the graph a little more playfulness. The idea of having small thumbnails and images to show the process of something makes it not only easier to understand but also provides the viewer with more content.
The scale plays an important part in these designs as the scale often interpretants the importance, time or greatness (mass wise) of a task.
For example; the small circle that says review in this first example. The reason its so small is
that review is just a small part of the whole activity and task, and takes almost no time at all and no effort in comparison to the other tasks.
These two are great example of how busy an image is or lack there of and have it still make sense. The first image is clearly all over the place in terms of layout, scale and colors. But as viewers, we can already tell that was intended because it tells us a lot in regards to how this person, or group works; very messy and all over the place. A lot of planning is put in place with discussion and possibly distractions.
The second graph shows a clear journey from point A to point B but with arrows guiding the viewer back and forth. While the scale is not important in this piece, I wanted to focus on the layout of the overall piece. Its clear, right in the middle and equal which could say that the person puts equal amount of work into everything but the arrows suggest they skip back and forth to clear everything up.
In order to understand my own way of working better, I wanted to see what the people of the internet have to offer when it comes to their own design process. Mine will have a more artistic approach rather than a mechanical in terms of design; i.e a web design rather than my own way of working.
Possible ideas for my design process model. Nothing is set in stone, but im interesting to approach this in a very artistic art style. I want it to have minimal words but it all comes down to experimentations of work and research.
