How healthy is the air in Berlin?
About the project
The data journalism and visualisation project “How healthy is the air in Berlin” was developed as part of the “Mapping Cities – Making Cities” course by Prof. Dr Marian Dörk. The result of the teamwork effort was a website with infographics about “harmful air pollution in Berlin”, “the health impacts of air pollution” and “how much air pollution are measured in Berlin”.

My Role
My role was front-end design (HTML, CSS and other npm package management scripts) and I guided the team on how to integrate their content. The project was created through teamwork with two other students. Together we planned the narrative of the website. I supported the project with infographics and a design concept (colours and typography). The website was built for desktop and mobile screen sizes.
The Berlin map and the charts were done by Maryna Honscharenko. Daniel Almgren Recén did the texts and research.
