A Friend’s Day in a Life

The project involved exchanging data with my friend Margarita (Maggie) Granjeda, an illustrator and graphic designer. I created an infographic comparing Maggie's lifestyle at home and school, highlighting her vibrant personality and exceptional skills.

Project Details

Design Research and Exploration

The project prompt instructed us to exchange data with the person beside us, coincidentally my friend Margarita (Maggie) Granjeda who is also an illustrator, graphic designer, and motion graphic animator. In preparation, we recorded our activities during the initial week of school, which we later swapped. Presented with a challenging dilemma, we were tasked with using the received information to craft two contrasting infographic about the other person's data. My focus was predominantly on comparing Margarita's lifestyle between her leisure time at home and her time at school.

Project Results

Maggie is recognized for her exceptional illustrative skills and vibrant personality. In crafting my infographic poster about her, I aimed to showcase both her unique character and strengths. To achieve this, I opted for an illustrative vector shape aesthetic, integrating graphs and data seamlessly into a scene that reflects Maggie's lifestyle as seen through her eyes.
