| 1. The objective of this assignment was to design icons in Illustrator that clearly communicate a message. From this assignment I learned that icons are meant to portray a message easily and clearly by using simple shapes and lines. I chose to ice cream, soccer, and coffee because they all involved simple design that would be easily recognized. I had to think about who would be viewing my objects and since there wasn't a certain audience I used designs that any age group would understand. |
