LIFE MODELS
A design system transforms scientific data on 5,500 rare diseases into unique visual identities, addressing the lack of information and support for patients with rare conditions. The Identity Builder creates a unique symbol for each disease, increasing visibility and facilitating connections between patients and doctors. Utilizing the RD MAP dataset, it translates 30,000+ data points into visual elements, enabling cross-disease research and collaboration.
Based on the RD MAP dataset published by Yang J., Dong C., Li H., et al. (2021), the Identity Builder translates over 30,000 data points across 5 variables into visual elements like shape, icons, color, texture, and composition.
