designing with data
DESCRIPTION
There's more to designing with data than visualisation or infographics. Data driven utility - or data products are where the real value lies. For the next generation of designers, data will be their material. It is up to us to understand its material properties as the next iconic products won't be made from plastics, or metal, or glass. They will be made of dataTRANSCRIPT
