This infographic offers some insight into smart technology for the home. Along with statistics, the piece features spot illustrations of the technology. Although the illustration style shifts throughout the infographic, the organization is helpful and the color palette is consistent. The stats are accompanied by circle charts, which is a great visualization practice—however, the percentage represented doesn't always match the number, which can be misleading for readers relying on the visual elements. The copy is brief, and while there are some inconsistencies in format, a reader would be able to move through everything quickly. Some of the copy and technology included here don't necessarily align with the title's goals, so some additional clarity in messaging could be helpful. Overall, there's a solid foundation to this infographic but could benefit from some additional consistency. We'd give this an F.
