The Perspective
Abstract
While the web was meant to broaden our horizons, the opposite has happened. Social media filter bubbles, a fragmented news landscape and the drive to personalization have all but insulated and polarized us. The Perspective seeks to counter the growing polarization taking hold all over the world as amplified in the case of Brexit, the 2016 US presidential election and more.
The Perspective is a global enterprise, defined by its mission of opening minds this by displaying two sides of current events. The psychological insights gathered were translated into de-facto design choices and editorial guidelines. The Perspective won the 2017 Eppy and WebAward and it is also a highly commended finalist of The 2018 Drum award and a Webby award nominee (www.theperspective.com).
