These graphics were developed by the designer Yang Liu to show cultural differences between Germany and China.
The design virtues are readily apparent, although a delicate balance is struck between being simple and being cryptic.
I think this series could have wider applications than broad cultural comparisons. Seen as a comparison of behaviour arising from personality types, the blue side of each pair succinctly represents behaviours based on rationality; the red side neurosis. I have labelled each graphic accordingly. The original context and message of the graphics can be seen at the link below.
