Working on the field guide really helped me further hone my organization skills. As with the concept map, we were to take large amounts of information and organize it in a clear and relevant fashion. The user must also be able to use the guide in the field, which is why it's small and portable. Because gathering content was so important with this project, I chose a field I thought people would be interested in and find useful; local beer. The guide takes the form of a pamphlet that users could take with them to the liquor store, gas station, or Central Market in search of local brews. I enjoyed designing the layout and typography as well as doing the research. I'm happy with the end product, although if given more time and money I'd expand the guide to encompass all the breweries in Austin.
