Troy Rogers’ Post

This information design poster really caught my attention. I typically don’t like posters, but I am seriously considering buying one of these. They picked a very relevant topic that would interest a lot of people, and then they made a very clear and bold design that easily catches people’s attention. The colors are all very fitting for the topic since they are similar to the original Apple logo, and the information in the design is very easy to follow. Also, they were able to fit in a lot of information without it feeling cluttered. I would definitely consider this to be one of my favorite information design pieces.

  1. I would love to see the poster at full-size because what I can see looks terribly cluttered and hard to read. But I must agree that the bright colors and even the topic itself is genius and would absolutely grab my attention. This is something I would stop and look at and it would hold my attention.

  2. The color use in this is awesome. This would definitely grab my attention in passing. I already want to find a way to view it bigger to see what information it possesses. Often times with that much color a design can look to busy and distracting. This one is busy, but not because of the color. All the color seems to flow really well.

  3. Can I see a full-size of this? I can't really make out everything but it looks awesome. I also love how they use the colors from the original apple logo. Everything in the design seems to have a purpose behind it which is fantastic. It was all done intentionally. I could be a little biased in liking this poster because it's about apple but what's not to like about apple? Whoever did this did an awesome job!

  4. The bold use of color gives this a nice feel and pulls you in to look at it. The information that they're portraying is definitely popular right now and would appeal to a lot of people. It's so interesting to see all of the products change with time. So they're not only telling us about it, you can simply see the changes made. Very effective information design.

  5. Wow! I actually did not notice that the colors of the poster itself was, in a way, trying to appear as the original apple logo. I find this information design piece to be very creative and appealing to look at, as well as learn off of. I do not know much about the years that things were made or the different types of features that came with it, but this design allows me to learn that stuff in a extremely simple way. I can really appreciate how this design shows the progression of the Apple company. Great Design!

  6. I love that they used Apple's original logo colors! I completely forgot that those were Apple's colors; They really caught my attention. I really like this piece. It's easy to follow and simple enough. I would like it see it blown up a little larger so I could see the detail better, but overall, I think the layout is aesthetically pleasing and interesting to look at.
