IKEA’s famous illustrations and aesthetic is an entertaining example of Instructional design. Just like their branding of minimalism, their furniture instructions follow along too. By only including visuals, you would know the basics of what goes together, that’s what make their instructions so IKEA of them. Since a basic instruction sheet would have words, IKEA’s take on that flipped around and by using well done illustrations it makes it easy to understand for any age.

2. Lego blocks

Similar to IKEA’s instruction sheet, LEGO’s booklets of instructions feature a well designed layout and illustration for kids to understand without the use of description and words. They make it clear of what block specifically needs to go where and making it clear of what colour it needs to be. Since these building blocks are toys aimed at kids from the ages of 4, they have catered to their target market by understanding that they learn by numbers and colours.

This example of infographics says a lot, especially with the balance between graphics and information. Specifically in this infographic, they have designed it well so that the colours are very eye catching along with not to much information to read off. The title stands out from a far and should catch your attention from a distance, especially the pig. A title and colour palette is what makes readers/viewers interested in what they’re looking at and be intrigued to read the rest of the information.
