We're proud to announce the winner of our latest infographic contest, where we asked readers to design an infographic about the recent earthquake in Haiti. We at GOOD conferred with Aaron Perry-Zucker of Design for Haiti, and we've come to a decision.
Emily Schwartzman—whose graphic, "Aftermath of the Haiti Earthquake," clearly and concisely depicts both the human toll of the earthquake and the scope of the earthquake itself—is our winner. Schwartzman will take home our prize package, including a GOOD T-shirt and a free subscription. You'll be able to see her infographic in print in our next issue as well as on the Design for Haiti site. Click on the image above to enlarge it.
We would also like to call out two other entries for distinction. While we have no prizes to offer, you deserve a lot of praise for these pieces. Stephane Bau's piece featured an otherwise unused piece of information—the gap in funding various sectors of aid—in a interesting graphic package. And Claire Kohler did an excellent job combining data on both earthquakes and aid in a visually arresting package. You can see both pieces below, and all the submissions here.
Our next contest will be announced next week. For everyone who participated, please keep doing excellent work. We look forward to seeing what you can come up with next.
