Exhibit 4

Infographic

Design Considerations:

  • Color: As this is a piece about plants, I wanted to choose earthy tones. I focused my color choice on greens, browns, and tans.

  • Contrast: Contrast appears in this design in the typography, and in the color choice. Contrast is seen in the typography with the script and sans serif fonts. The colored elements of this design utilize light/dark and warm/cool hues to create contrast.

  • Alignment: Overall, this design contains a centered alignment to maintain balance and enhance the flow of the infographic.

  • Typography: I choose to mainly use a sans serif font for my design so that the text was clean and clear. I created contrast in the title by using a script font. This contrast immediately draws the viewer in so they know that this infographic will talk about the perfect houseplant. Size is used in the rest of the infographic to create a sense of hierarchy and flow.

  • Line: Line is used in this design to help create a sense of flow and guide the viewer through the infographic. The use of line also allows viewers to comprehend which material belongs together.

Revision

Revision:

I chose to revise some of the line spacing in this document. These specing adjustments were made to the list of plants at the very bottom to make sure the reader does not group the names of the plants together.
