For us, the key question behind any investment in visual representation is that of utility, and of benefit. From our extensive experience in the field of information design, we hold the motivating impact of aesthetics to be our most important task, and most important tool in this aim.

Do you have something for us to make beautiful?

Information Aesthetics

To dock onto a long-running website project under the existing technical limitations and to help to create a more attractive data storytelling platform together with the data scientists.

A user interface concept with a holistic visual grammar, which takes into account all criteria of statistical accuracy, expands the branding of United Nations in the field of diagrams and offers users a joyful experience.

From a small side project with a limited budget, the project gained positive attention within the larger United Nation and the Swiss Federal Statistical Office.

Go beyond the limits of existing Business Intelligence (BI) tools and find an easily readable representation to make the most important numbers accessible to every education layer.

A countable diagram language combined with the strict and systematic use of color results in an easy to read report. The legends and comments placed directly in the chart loosen up the collection of numbers more into a story. A central element are the numbers organized in tiles on the entry pages of every chapter.

The unattractive tool character of BI tools is replaced by a simple diagram principle and a tile-like overview of the most important Key Performance Indicators (KPI). The dashboard pages, which function as PPT slides, but also as printouts, live primarily from the simplicity of having already been curated in terms of content.

Help to support the decision-making process and enrich the patient communication of public health workers in Nigeria, Ivory Coast and Mozambique through better designed paper-based information systems.

A comprehensive concept for the paper-based medical recording and reporting of health data with forms, which significantly simplifies the current information structures, connects them across disciplines and contains a sophisticated alert system for possible complications.

The holistic analysis of the information architectures of almost all child-related form books, which went beyond the characteristics of the individual countries, led to the discovery of an approach for the universal medical record, which also raised interest at the WHO and thus opened up many questions and interests.

Empower children in Switzerland, aged between 9 and 15, to digitally answer over 100 questions on child well-being in a survey developed by scientists.

A web-based survey with playful question types, illustrations, emoticons and a lot of background logic to shorten the number of questions and allow an easy handling of the complex topic. With an interface that allows all the scientific requirements of an evaluation of the results with SPSS.

Over 1500 children at selected Swiss schools have so far answered the questionnaire. When asked how much they liked the questionnaire, 75% of the children interviewed rewarded us with four or five stars from a possible five.

Turning a working document into an attractive yet serious book, which makes the participatory process of planning and designing child-friendly living spaces accessible to various interest groups.

A handbook of 200 pages, which is based on an overall big picture and from which all chapters can be derived by a red thread. The orientation is guaranteed by an illustration and colour code and can also be found in the web version, which is constantly being expanded.

Already during the first co-creative process, the visualization of the topics contained in the book revealed potential for improvement, which had not been noticed in pure text form up to that point. The visualization as a tool for sharpening the content enabled a shared understanding of the topic for the team.

Attract and enable very different target groups like researchers, political authorities or the general public, to explore statistical data about research and research funding in Switzerland.

A flexible CMS system connected via the API (Solr) that takes over changes in the data set in real time and keeps all stories up to date. The stories are represented by a customized waffle diagram. It can display even large differences in numbers correctly and is easy to understand. The user experience is enhanced with an exclusionary menu, an updated branding and an intelligent diagram description.

The further development of a very technical and tool-like perception of data towards a narrative presentation method that automatically updates itself led to a change of perspective in scientific communication for all participants.

Empower Lonza employees to communicate abstract scientific life science topics with easy-to-understand visual rule-based system, without violating the branding guidelines.

A geometric system based on the Lonza logo, which has rules for every angle, corner, line and point. The icon principle is based on the definition of representational grammars for terms with abstract, concrete and microscopic content.

The expansion of the Branding System is the last step in the corporate transformation towards a fact-based and scientific communication, which we have accompanied and expanded over the years. The self-identification of all employees with the system created and the simple branding guidelines contribute significantly to a new transparency and internal willingness to communicate.

Helping Swiss Post to make the annually published study on key figures for the Swiss online market visually accessible on various channels through a microsite that is easy to understand and maintain.

A cross-platform application that uses a single diagram type to tell all key figures with a common thread and enriches the user experience as a real scrollitelling. The content structure is constructed from a bird's eye view and delves more and more into the small details.

This microsite shows that scrollitelling is not only a nice and refreshing element, but that it can also provide orientation when visitors are guided through the page in a strict way. A morphing diagram can keep the red thread alive and bring the content relationships closer, piece by piece, without overloading the graphics.
