Infographics provide an excellent way to generate visual content while bringing out the narrative in data or history provided. 
Deborah created this infographic to present a visual overview of Busselton Jetty’s points of interest: activities, location, jetties and piers, man and nature. 
Apart from doing all the illustrations, Deborah developed the concept, designed the infographic and wrote the copy. For a closer look, check out the Busselton Jetty Elements and the Busselton Jetty Location pages.
