my most awesome friend heathermm just posted these arts and crafts-esque infographics:

Taiwanese designer Tien Min Liao who currently works in New york created this awesome book called Ilha Formosa which introduces Taiwan via infographics.
“WhyWhen I came to the United State, I noticed that many people don’t know my hometown Taiwan. Some people even cannot tell the difference between Taiwan and Thailand, just because they sound alike. As a designer, I think I should do something to promote this beautiful island.
Challenge I would like to do something very different from the other books about Taiwan.   It would definitely not be a tourist guide, nor a boring   government-published book. It should be interesting and casual, but also   clear in delivering the information about Taiwan.”
