Randy Krum’s fantastic “Caffiene Poster” began back in June 2009, and was just released this week. If you’ve ever wondered what goes into creation of such an infographic, he has begin a multi-part series detailing the effort spent in not only designing the poster, but coming up with the original idea and visualization strategy.
You may say, “This is such a simple graphic, why did it take 6 months? It looks like it should be pretty easy.” First, I would say that I wasn’t working on it full time, but I think the exercise also highlights how much work really goes into infographic designs. It’s not a new sentiment, but let me say that designers don’t get enough credit.
