Cigarette consumption per person in Germany

After seeing positive media reports about the decline in cigarette consumption in Germany, I became curious about how this trend could be shown in a more tangible way. Statistics on a screen can feel abstract, so I decided to create a simple paper visualization to make the change more visible.

By translating the numbers into a physical form, I hope the progress becomes easier to grasp. Maybe seeing this shift visually will encourage some people to join the growing group of non-smokers.
