I’ve been studying visuals quite intensively for the past 6-8 months!
I took Craig Burgess course on Daily Visuals
I connected with many who are creating visuals
More importantly, I started creating my own visuals & publishing them
Here’s my understanding of different types of visuals - to name the 3 most common forms, I personally admire.
And yup, this is not it. There are 33 ways of visualizing information.

We assume that designing, particularly information designing, is the job of the ‘graphic designer’. It’s far from the truth.
Especially, in the world where everyone is making judgements, forming opinions and even taking life decisions, based on pixels on a flat screen, only puts the onus of making designs the top most priority of the entire organisation.
“Business has only two main functions - marketing and innovation”
~ Peter Drucker
Here’s my visual interpretation and my take on the idea!
I think ‘Design’ falls right at the confluence of innovating and marketing!
It’s raising awareness
It’s customer education
It’s about communicating
It’s catching the attention
It’s obviously also about conversion….
How do you employ ‘design’ in your business or your startup, at your work or at home?

Yellow Visual of the Week
I just love the simplicity that visuals provide you in conveying a very complex topic.
Here I used a simple lines (10 lines to be exact) to portray my struggle with creative process and the results thereof!
YellowVisuals has 500+ followers
I opened this separate ac to give myself the challenge to grow a Twitter followership without using any random techniques and shady hacks.
I also wanted to have more freedom in my personal ac. And also there are people who follow me just for visuals. I don't want them to be bothered by my everyday rant :)
So I guess, it’s working…
As a token of appreciation, I’m giving away my ebook, ‘The Yellow Visuals’ with curated list of my 100 best visuals for just $1.
