So Slate got 4 designers to revise the presentation of a good meal into a more coherent picture than what the USDA did… their new pyramid is essentially incoherent, especially compared to the old pyramid. When you look at the fresh ideas the designers used (thinking outside the pyramid) you have to wonder why nobody in government thought to ask professionals. No, worse, I don’t think we wonder at all.
My favorite is the Visual i|o presentation that summarizes your day’s success or failure. Still, the use of visuals to show time in Stone Yamashita’s presentation is really slick.
