For this week, we had to work with Adobe Illustrator for the first time, at this course anyhow. This is in my opinion one of the most useful and one of the most fascinating programs of the whole Adobe Creative Suite. Of course I still haven't seen all of them, far from it, but from where I'm standing now it's seems like some really really powerful stuf.
The assignment was to gather and analyze information about our site (average temperatures, amount of sunlight, connectivity to electrical grid,...), and to create some visual representations of that core data.
The designs had to be simple and meaningful. When talking about information design, we first have to ask ourselves, what do I really want to show, what is my information talking about, how am I going to make it as clear as possible, etc... We had to take all of this things into consideration.
Here's the result of my work. I tried to gather and represent the information about my site, that I think is the most important to my project and therefor most useful in my further designing.
Here is one tutorial , among many others I watched, to better understand how to use in and how to work more efficientlly in Adobe Illustrator:
This assignment was a really nice way to get to know the methods of finding and visualizing useful information and off course, how to use the programe Adobe Illustrator.
One of the things I did was to analyse the way how the site would actually connect into the surrounding area (plumbing, electricity, transport, etc.). I aslo analysed the sun and how it interacts with the site itself. Especially because the site lies on a very sunny slope, that offers a lot of sunlight during the year and I thing that the end project should reflect the atributes that it has.
