Successful Data Visualizations

The following are some of the best data visualizations I have found on Pinterest.

1. Life made by Ben Willers and can be found on http://designbeep.com/2013/03/02/17-beautiful-examples-of-clean-and-minimal-infographics/

Data is represented in lines, bars and words.  I picked this as a good data visualization because it is neatly planned out and the colors work together.  It is successful because it is easy to read.

2. Split Seconds made by Paul Butt and can be found on http://signal-noise.co.uk/thinking/over-in-less-than-a-second

The data is represented again with lines and circles.  I pick this as a good data visualization because it is interesting to me.  I assume you would start in the center to read it.  It is successful because it is visually interesting.

3. Design and Food made by Ryan MacEachern and can be found on http://www.creativebloq.com/photography/designer-charts-his-diet-beautifully-colourful-foods-6133170

Data is represented with food which is interesting to me.  I chose this because it was interesting that the designer used food to represent the data.  I think it is successful because it draws the viewer in by using real objects.

4. When Marriage Disappears under the direction of W. Bradford Wilcox found on http://www.promotionalcodes.org.uk/frugal-blog/22562/when-marriage-disappears-visual-representation-us-marriage-statistics/

The data is represented in graph form, a few with simple illustrations, and little color is used.  It is successful because it is well laid out and easy to read.  It is successful because it is so simple.
