Information Design

This series delves into the multi-decade long process in which obesity has become a national health crisis. The stackable layers have accumulated over time, creating a world in which more than a quarter of the UK’s adults are classed as obese. This world has been fascinating to break down through the medium of data. I wanted to visualise these layers; from the scale of the food industry to the automation of everyday tasks, even down to the way in which stress can influence our hormones to promote overeating. This project was designed as a poster series, perhaps something that could be used in places of healthcare, such as GP surgeries, but also just general educational pieces for people who also appreciate good design and well researched data.
