Construction prices infographic

This is an infographic about the changes in construction materials pricing in Greece. Modeled in blender, rendered in cycles and postprocessed in inkscape.


Edit: I just finished it, I need to doublecheck my numbers, and the url is wrong, but I’ll leave it here for critiques until I fix it. The correct url is statistics.gr, for reference.

It’s not a good infographic. Things are 20% smaller or bigger for 1% difference in price. Also just looking at the numbers are at first confusing. The only way I could guess what those numbers are is based on Diesel. Everything is unsymmetrical, I don’t know where to look.

Sorry for the harsh critique but this information should be easy to read and you somehow complicated it.

The numbers need to stay in the same place on all of the graphs

Keeping the y axis in the same place for all of the graphs would make it clearer.

yes, aporetic…
must continue unifying, simplify more, tend to form in a bit more ideal/clean forms, also remove inconsistencies (too many edges, different angles, different tonnes, details, repeating textures, unbalanced comp… too much noise) and think simple as you visualize the common denominator: awareness-consumer-value
Don’t bomb with info…
invite, to look into the thought… to have an idea

Thanks,

I’m not extremely happy about it either, but I really have to stop sinking time in it (it’s the third iteration, previous were still worse). I will try to do something about it if it doesn’t mean too much extra time.

I think it’s better now. What do you think?


Much much better. Add years to every staple and make the numbers more visible.

:yes: yup, much better

Thanks again.

Here’s the final version, with numbers corrected

I decided to keep the years only in the first instance, for a cleaner view.

Looks great.
