Dutifully Approaching Dataviz Creation
Produces Better Results
Transitioning visualizations from “work product” to “client
ready” requires attention to detail
Planning the approach to dataviz creation helps ensure
each element of the process is sound
Sketching visualizations will ultimately save time and effort
Producing a final dataviz is a study in iteration, not a “one-
and-done” experience

Understanding the
Components of Visual Form
Understanding the
Components of Visual
Form
Knowing what comprises visual
form and what constitutes “good”
for each element is crucial to

Good Visual Form Has Three Essential
Elements
Separates important
Sophisticated data from the rest
Use of Contrast via visual context
Clearly communicates
the insight we intend
to convey Clear Refined
Meaning Execution
Applies visual polish to
bring deep attention to
detail to the visual
This Framework Offers an Useful View of
Dataviz Execution
Provides a detailed definition to McCandless’s concept of
visual form
Defines elements that the dataviz author can reasonably
affect and control
Reveals the connection between the process of data
analysis and the final image that is produced
