the world of 100

What’ve we got here? A bunch of charts? Yes I think so. These charts were whipped up by designer Toby Ng to display statistics about the world micro-sized down to a population of 100. The statistics are then made visual with some fabulous info-graphics.

Super fun, super posterasized.

/The World of 100

This is a self-initiated project based on the scenario – If the world were a village of 100 people. There are a few different versions of this text in circulation about the world’s statistics. I found the data very striking and neatly summarises the world that we live in. So I used information graphics to re-tell the story in another creative way. I designed a set of 20 posters, which contain most of the information. I used simple vector graphics that related to a statistic in order to present the information in the simplest and most accessible way. – Toby Ng Design
