All the things we do are according to the process we&#8217;ve learned, this does not make it the same for every body. Different personality&#8217;s have equal different processes, especially when it comes to something creative.</p>
<p>So one of the things we had to do for school the past year was to discover your graphic design process, write down how it is and then make something nice to show how you work.</p>
<p><a href="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_04.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-625" title="Info_04" src="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_04-494x190.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="190" /></a></p>
<p>After I made my text draft of how I think my process should be and checked it against the way I really work, the hard part started, how to make a nice display of this process. Looking around the internet gave me a lot of different options on how to display a process, but non of them are original or new. To prevent me from copying something, I came up with the idea of making an info graphic style of display</p>
<p><a href="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_01.png"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-628" title="Info_01" src="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_01-494x276.png" alt="" width="494" height="276" /></a></p>
<p>A good idea, great actually but a huge challenge as this is my first info graphic ever, so again I had a look at all this wonderful examples on the net and I came up with this info graphic. It basically consist of 4 main parts that are all connected together.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>The legend.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>The process integration against design completion.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>The design process against the amount of stress.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>The Design process in Circles.</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_02.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-623" title="Info_02" src="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_02-494x331.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="331" /></a></p>
<blockquote class="pull-quote"><p>Process, A series of actions, changes, or functions bringing about a result</p><cite class="author"> &mdash; Wikipedia</cite></blockquote>
<p>Every color represents a different step, the size op the circle represents the amount of work and the overlapping of the circles indicate how the different steps are connected to each other.</p>
<p><a href="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_05.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-626" title="Info_05" src="http://eckodesign.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Info_05-494x242.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="242" /></a></p>
<p>I can write down my process but it;s better for you to look at the info graphic and see if you understand what my process is, the verdict so far is that 80% get it, so not to bad I think.</p>

<p>The Spanish football competition will start again this weekend, Barca will play on Monday the 31st against Sporting Gijon. As you probably will know by now I’m a supporter of Barcelona and I just thought to recreated the Barcelona logo in Illustrator. Not too hard to do but still fun, and I hope Barca will win the 3 cups again….</p>
