David McCandless is a British based designer who focuses on visualising information. I like his designs as they present the data in a informative way with a emphasis on using block colours in simple arrangements.#

Natashsa Nuttal has visualised her blogging habits using a geometric pattern of triangles. This has helped me to consider varying the way in which the components can be applied, in particular using one small component to create a larger shape.

Furthermore, I have been creating a range of drawings that have strongly informed my samples. Through the computer based drawings it allows me to quickly create and visualise my ideas that could then be translated into textile based pieces. Through making the drawings I have developed my skills on Illustrator and I have enjoyed the process far more than expected as I can produce results quickly and accurately. Some of the drawings are particularly reminiscent of embroidery and would translate into stitch well.
