Thisius Designs LLCOwner, Creative Director, Analytical Dashboard Designer
Jul. 2019Bend, Oregon, United StatesDESIGN PHILOSOPHY Within my experience designing analytical dashboards in the business intelligence industry I have found that data can be just as BEAUTIFUL as it is INSIGHTFUL. It is within the components of beauty that enable a visualization to become insightful and it is within the components of insight that enable a visualization to become beautiful. The application of minimalist, harmonious, and user centered design practices enables products to serve their purpose in driving users to gain the insight they need and inspire them to intuitively explore the data. By practicing a USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN process, I am able to design visuals and dashboard systems that guide the user through the appropriate interfaces to: - Discover the metrics they need to analyze when they are looking for them
- Have the information be flexible enough to be valuable to the user in all of their use case needs
- Easily digest the data in a fun and engaging format Historically, data has not been fun, however I am stepping in to CHANGE and CHALLENGE the industry. I believe that there is a mountain of potential within most analytical dashboard systems. Whether it be on a phone, tablet, or desktop I have seen the potential to bring users not only a better understanding of their data but also bring them a more engaging experience, and through a CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING process have successfully delivered solutions that take full advantage of that resting potential to reveal amazing products that makes peoples jobs more enjoyable and efficient. Through graphic design and the creation of CLICKABLE DIGITAL PROTOTYPES my clients can see and experiment with solutions and teams can effectively come to conclusions they only dreamed of before. As the saying goes "a picture is worth a thousand words," I ask "HOW MANY WORDS IS A INTERACTIVE PICTURE WORTH?"
