Informationdesign & Bookdesign: mSv[itzerland] - Kernraft in der Schweiz

mSv[itzerland] was developed in 2021 by myself and Yannick Fey as part of the "Information Design" module led by Prof Marion Fink. The book deals with the history of Swiss nuclear power, illustrates statistics on Swiss energy policy over the decades, highlights significant national and international events and contextualises them chronologically.

The book consists of yellow pages [which illustrate officially collected data on energy consumption or other statistics relevant to nuclear power] and grey pages [which focus on events, votes or other topics such as the repository] and is structured chronologically: instead of numbers, the book is navigated using a timeline that stretches from the invention of nuclear power to far into the future [until the estimated decay of radioactive waste].

To visualise statistics and data, we have developed new diagram systems that use the visual language of established design systems to represent radioactive material and used analogue textures and imagery of what was originally organic.
