I am Lulu Pinney. This is my blog. Hello! contact at lulupinney dot co dot uk
The majority of work featured on this blog isn't mine. They are examples of infographic design and visual journalism drawn from all over that I consider to be good*. With more and more visual infostuff out there I’m interested in curating a collection of good* work. And in this way I can further explore my definition of what good* is. That is why I blog.
