We were hired by Aktio -- a startup that helps companies track and reduce their carbon emissions -- to rethink their data visualisations. We collaborated on updating existing dashboards and creating new interactive visuals.
Before launching Parabole, our founder Evelina worked for Data4Change as part of a team that co-designed a digital data story and a physical data visualisation event in Nairobi, Kenya, with the Social Justice Centres Working Group.
"Which data visualisation books do you recommend?". Our founder, Evelina, has been asked this question so many times that she ended up creating a map of all dataviz books on her shelf. The result is this colourful series of cards.
When preparing to launch our business, our founder Evelina read the book "Book Yourself Solid". The information designer in her couldn't help but see the concepts in the book as a network, which eventually came to life in this visualisation.
This visualisation is the centrepiece of the book chapter we wrote about data design process. It shows the Goodreads ratings for the authors of the best books in the field.
