Field Guide | Information Design



The Future-ish Field Guide to Information Design and Data Visualization (we like to call it "data candy" here at Future-ish) is where you can find the latest and greatest news, information, and resources on information graphics and data visualization. We're just getting started on our fashion Field Guide so come back soon and often as we will be making frequent updates. Have a suggestion? Want to get listed? Interested in sponsoring a Field Guide page? Simply send an email to studiof(at)future-ish(dot)com to let us know.
