Get Ready to Quote a Bluth

Quote a Bluth

We’re counting down to the premiere of Arrested Development’s long-awaited fourth season on Netflix this Sunday, more than six years after it was canceled. We’re big fans of the series, and we feel a particularly special connection to the show, considering that our headquarters are in Newport Beach, California, home of the Bluth family and their world-famous banana stand. In honor of the long-awaited return, we created “Quote a Bluth,” our latest Column Five interactive.

The Bluths are quite possibly the most quotable family in history, so we wanted to create something that would give us easy access to our favorite quotes. And because we’re data nerds, we wanted to know exactly when in the series those epic scenes occur. So take a look at the site to find our favorite quotes, paired with screen stills and data, and feel free to share away.

Developing a Visual Language: USA Today's Graphics Rebranded

USA Today has long been known as a pioneer in the news industry for its use of infographics—particularly for its USA Today Snapshots®, which are illustrative charts and visualizations used on the front page of each section. These small data sets provide readers with short, easily digestible information about some of the larger news topics of the day. We were honored early last year when the team commissioned us to help refresh its infographic style and visual language to coincide with a rebranding that was already underway with Wolff Olins.
