- A designer's take on the most overlooked design features in Excel.
Excel can do almost everything that you could do in PowerPoint. It can be used to build everything from infographics to beautiful dashboards.

Those look so sleek, modern, and nothing like “boring” excel! I feel like a design lightbulb went off in my head seeing how you combine shapes and gradients. I started playing around doing a mock up and my non-excel wife looked over and gave the highest compliment: “when did excel become cute?”
Thank you so much for teaching and for inspiring!
Where have you been all my life! Immediate download.
Thanks! Happy you found the video!
Thanks for making me discover the hidden beauty of Excel. Will definitely be giving this a try.
you are a genius man. I like your work very much and iI am following you on Medium
Thanks Fabio! Happy to have you. I'm working on some new free templates that I"ll be releasing soon. If you see one you like, let me know!
So beautiful and amazing! Thanks!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Exactly the inspiration I was looking for, thank you!!
This looks great!!!! So creative. Thank you for sharing with us
Beautiful. ❤ Can you do a comprehensive tutorial on building one of these from start to finish?
Brilliant Stuff! This is Great.
This is so helpful and inspiring, thank you!
Thanks Melissa! I really appreciate the encouragement.
How powerful is this compared to power bi ui us
Holy F. Very Impressive!
its insane👏👏👏
Do you have a tutorial on how you made the first chart?
I wouldn't mind paying to learn how to do it!
Hey Josh! Love your stuff. I was thinking, would it be possible to make a sunburst chart like this with cards but also with a filter for the cards? So you can filter through different sets of data shown on the sunburst
It's possible but would probably be a bit difficult and would require the use of some custom VBA.
I just saw this video and love your work. Is there any way I can pay to make something like this for business? Thanks!
Silly question but how did you make the background that dark blue/ grayish color? Can you do a tutorial with a fresh excel sheet from the start?
It's not a silly question at all. There are two options:
1) just select your cells and use a fill color (this is great but doesn't allow you to have a gradient)
2) use the insert>shape function to add a rectangle and choose the gradient option for your fill color, you can manually set the rectangle to be as big as you want (100"x100" should be plenty)
I'm working on a longer format video but might release those as a separate tutorial course. Thanks for asking though 😊
Is the info in these beuatiful designed excel dynamic? Can I change the value of a table and it changes the graphics?
Yes most of the examples are dynamic. I've got a few other videos showing the full build process and they show how to structure your worksheets so that you can add new data and have it automatically update.
@@exceldesign I Love it! This is awesome
Mate, where do you get all those background photo graphics from? Especially the US maps you have used?
good that you show us how beautiful it can be but not how to make it so 😆
kind of useless..
