When I began designing the dashboards, I made some changes to the colour palette specifically. The red moved into the secondary colour palette as I felt that the purple and blue were strong enough visually to use as primary colours, where as the red over crowded it. I also decided to include a gradient throughout the design which complimented the primary colours nicely.
The process of designing this dashboard was time consuming as there was a lot of content to present on the dashboards. There was a risk that there would be an overwhelming amount of content for the user so it was important to present this in an easily digestible way.

I tried to make the visualisations as interactive as possible. This served two purposes: making it more engaging to use but also making the visualisations less visually crowded. If a user wanted to view a certain aspect of data, they can select or hover over wherever relevant to find out more. This made the dashboards a lot more streamlined.
I also focused on not making graphs too small to the point where they are not legible. I found that this meant I had to sacrifice other visualisations and swap them out for tables or single units but I think it served a better purpose of making the visualisations easier to understand.
