Nowadays we receive more information impacts in a day than a person could receive 200 years ago in a lifetime. The world has changed, but we have not changed as much, which is why information design has become a key tool to build messages, ideas and data that really have an impact not only on people's retinas but also in their minds.
But what is information design? Information design is the whole universe that surrounds the way we explain specific data, from the most superficial part, color, shape, materiality, style, to deeper elements such as context, interpretations or semantic interdependencies.
What does an information designer do?
Because it is an emerging profession, jobs are becoming more and more specific. Due to the proliferation of digital projects there is a large job market in these areas closely linked to the start-up world and the development of digital applications and services. On the other hand, the need for good information design is becoming apparent in all major institutions, from the United Nations to cultural organizations that see in this a space to better explain the increasingly complex reality we face.
