Europe’s New Migration

I was on holiday for a little bit, so apologies for the lack of content. But, now I am back for a little while. So here’s hoping life gets a bit more settled and content can be published more regularly.

Whilst I was on holiday, I only checked the news a few times and most of it seemed to be consumed by the migration/refugee crisis facing the European Union. While I could type away ad nauseam on the issue, the best way to engage you on the topic would be through a Washington Post map that details the different paths migrants/refugees use.

I am hoping that in the future I will find sufficient other charts and graphics others have made to comment on a very important issue.

I am a graphic designer who focuses on information design. My day job? Well, they asked me not to say. But to be clear, this blog is my something I do on my own time and does not represent the views of…my employers. I think what I can say is that given my interest in information design—be it in the shape of clear charts, maps, diagrams, or wayfinding systems—I am fortunate that my day job focuses on data visualisation. Outside of work, I try to stay busy with personal design work. Away from the world of design, I have become an amateur genealogist and family historian. You will sometimes see that area of work bleed into my posts.
