BLUEPRINT FOR INFORMATION ARCHITECTS

Wurman is chairman and creative director of the TED Conferences, which focus on the converging fields of technology, entertainment, and design. In 1976 he coined the term “information architect” and declared himself the first of many to come. Since then he’s mentored a generation of creative disciples who work with words, pictures, and video. One result is Wurman’s recent book, Information Architects. It presents the creations of 20 colleagues who’ve mastered the skill of presenting clear information. From their joint efforts, we’ve highlighted five rules for mapping information so others can find their way.
