WHAT ?
The article of John Law's on the The Case of Portuguese Expansion, identifies the main concepts of the story which are to be depicted through infographics to create a visual representation of data to represent information quickly and clearly.
THE GOAL :
The story depicts how the Portuguese Expansion led to the Indian Spice Trade dominance. The poster is designed to be a simple depiction of the elements that effected the outcome of this story. The poster begins with the initial event that catalyzed this process, continues to the hindrances, and concludes on the solutions -innovative ship design, the magnetic compass, and a new sailing techniques - that each contributed to the dominance of the Indian Spice Trade by the Portuguese.
