Tips and Tricks for designing great Infographics

Before you start looking at the infographic design elements below there are a few handy tips you should review.

  • Data is key: make sure the topic is interesting and that you have a good and reliable set of data
  • Make it trustworthy: add references to you data sources
  • Do some good story-telling: Think of the infographic as a story where you build up awareness and facts using the data.
  • Make it matter: Draw conclusions that can be supported by the data set. Have a easy to follow red line that eventually lead to reasonable conclusions
  • Choose a design style that match the topic. E.g. if the infographic is about popularity of classical music (just kidding) then don’t use high tech super modern and cool design elements.. consider a more old fashion style.
  • Decide on a color scheme that you use throughout the entire infographic design
  • Keep it simple: find ways to illustrate complex and detailed data sets in a simple and visual way. Use relevant icons to give the data some life.
  • Use well know and easy to understand diagrams, tables, charts, time-lines, annotated maps
  • Use color and size on related/similar objects to make different values visually differ
  • Test it: Let other people review it before you publish… you may see the light only because you worked with the data for hours…
  • Be inspired: look at as many good infographics before you start designing yourself
