While
this project has been covered by many, I can’t help but consider it
when I’m asked to think of projects I wish I would have done—or at
least been a part of. I have seen a number of projects similar to this
lately, but none that were executed so well, or so originally, as Peter Ørntoft’s.
It’s inspiring to see this level of creativity and originality,
especially on a school project level. This is what every student wants
to do, what every professor expects from their students and what every
design shop looks for when recruiting new talent.
To house the 10-piece set of contextualized infographics, Ørntoft
uses a “statistical yearbook” as his platform. These graphics—each
impressive as stand-alone storytelling devices—are solid in both
concept and composition. The graphics cover broad topics from gang
violence to religious garments, and how they relate to Denmark. What’s
really effective about each one is that the reader can tell what the
graphic is about at first glance. Additionally, the photographs are
beautiful, and the data is interesting.
