It was produced in Adobe Illustrator, with the plant illustration by Ana, a member of the group, ensuring a coherent and original visual language throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Formally, it balances scientific rigor and aesthetic appeal through a clear visual hierarchy, illustrative iconography and a palette tied to the plant\u2019s identity. This multi-level approach to visual communication contributes to science communication, promoting good information-design practice \u2014 simplifying complex content without compromising accuracy \u2014 and reinforcing graphic design as a mediator between scientific knowledge and the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Imprint \/ Technical Rider<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Year<\/strong>: 2025<br><strong>Dimensions<\/strong>: 297 \u00d7 420 mm<br><strong>Production and finishing<\/strong>: Printed at Norc\u00f3pia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Curricular Unit:<\/strong><br>Graphic Design and Infographics (1st year)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Supervising Professor:<\/strong><br>Em\u00edlia Dias Costa<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Infographics, Botany, Iconography, Science Communication<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/expo\/2026\/index.html?prj=14&amp;lang=en\">See this project in the <em>Material Archive<\/em> interactive archive \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Graphic Design and Infographics, students were asked to create an infographic about an aromatic plant in the Serralves Garden, communicating botanical information in a visually engaging and scientifically rigorous way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2008,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[43,3482,909,31,3496,18,69],"tags":[223,915,920,192,925,933],"class_list":["post-2011","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-course-projects-and-assignments","category-exhibition","category-graphic-design-and-infographics","category-infoviz","category-material-archive-2026-en","category-portfolio","category-poster-design","tag-223","tag-alice-alves","tag-ana-pinto","tag-emilia-costa","tag-fabiana-oliveira","tag-jardim-de-serralves","entry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/arquivo-material-prj-014-01.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2011","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2011"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2011\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2012,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2011\/revisions\/2012"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2008"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2011"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2011"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mdgpe.fba.up.pt\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2011"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
