Entry 1: Mijn Verbuik

Note from the creator: 

In a classic case of professional deformation, I turned my electricity consumption data into a dashboard 🤓

The trigger was to get a better understanding of my user profile as this is valuable input to decide on making the investment in solar panels and a home battery.

The visuals provided by Fluvius are not sufficient, hence this dashboard.

Why this is for me a well-designed dashboard:

  • Guides the user through multiple insights
    • Overall consumption and how it compares to previous year
    • Showing the different mapped user profiles, forcing the user to click to see his/her profile
    • User profile with a calculated matching %, explaining the match and specific advice
    • More details to discover with interactive charts
  • Limited use of color
  • Use of whitespace
  • Technically:
    • Use of background image, created via powerpoint
    • Use of bookmarks
    • Custom visual with Deneb (bullet chart)
    • Dynamic icon for user profile, achieved via SVG measure
