Advisor: Virajita Singh. 1 digital file (pdf)This thesis is concerned with the process of information design. It builds upon an argument by UCLA professor Johanna Drucker for a humanistic approach to graphic expression (rather than a graphic approach to human expression, which is characteristic of contemporary examples of information design). This project explores two case studies, one that models design thinking and one that inquires into the nature of expression, and channels lessons learned from those experiences into the creation of a Model of Humanized Information Design Thinking.information designdesign thinkingdigital humanitiesgraphic designrepresentationvisual communicationHumanizing Information Design: A ModelThesis or Dissertation
