After getting through the first couple days, my boss assigned me to create a parking lot map. The process I did before I started designing was to do some research. As said by my instructors, research all that you are able to find to make sure you have all the right parts to create a successful design. Also, I sketched some ideas up too!
I am currently in Illustrator to create the map. I think I chose this software for the purpose of it being an infographic. I can control more detail on the illustrations, which is what I am after.
