magnifique theseThe topic of my Master thesis project is the development of a design pattern taxonomy for data visualization and information design. In its core, the project consists of a collection of 55 design patterns that describe the functional aspects of graphic components for the display, behavior and user interaction of complex infographics. The thesis is available in the form of a 200-page book that additionally includes a profound historical record of information design as well as an introduction into the research field of design patterns. It has been submitted by the end of February 2008, and will be presented in mid-April. Further information on the thesis content and a first version of the pattern browser prototype will be online soon after.
