3 - Design
At the core of our design approach was the desire to present complex data in an intuitive and engaging manner. We aimed to move beyond conventional ways of displaying productions and contributor profiles and instead opted for a visually appealing interactive graph.
Informed by our prospective user research, we prioritized reducing cognitive load of our visualization and sought to ensure that that navigating through the map was both intuitive and enjoyable. This involved designing a clean and minimalistic interface through several stages of prototyping.
