Iconographic Poster Design Objectives

My iconographic poster aims to evoke a sense of mystery, enchantment, and intrigue. The imagery should be imbued with an otherworldly quality, featuring elements such as ritual items, flickering candlelight, and crystals carved with delicate hands. The color palette will be rich and atmospheric, with deep hues of midnight blue, velvety purples, and smoky grays, accented by flashes of ethereal green. The typography will be bold yet elegant, reminiscent of ancient scripts and esoteric manuscripts, adding to the sense of mystique and allure.

Design Brief For the first step, I researched images and symbols that were reminiscent of the aesthetic I wanted to go for with the poster. After finding a good collection of inspiration images, I came up with a simple color paletTE to use with both the icons and background of the poster.

Then I began sketching out the base sketches for the icons. After the sketches were complete, I took a good quality image of the sketches and opened it in illustrator. Building on top of the sketch, I went through and completely digitized the icons, beginning first with the line art. With the line art complete, I began adding the flat colors, then moving onto shading. When the icons were complete, I then went about placing them in their positions on the poster. With the icons in their proper places, I went about adding in the colored background of the poster. The final touches were the typography and added color effects to enhance the colors and contrast of the poster.

Design Brief I started designing the vending machine wrap and brand design by researching vending machines with similar purposes. After gathering a list of similar machines, I then began looking up brands with a similar aesthetic to my brand’s desired aesthetic. With both reference materials in mind, I began sketching the brand’s logo. When the brands logo sketch was signed off, I then moved on to digitizing the logo, starting with the linework, then the flat colors, and then finally the shading. I then added typography to the logo. After the logo was complete, I then moved onto sketching concepts of the machines wrap. With the wrap concept approved, I then went on to creating each face of the machine in illustrator.

App Design App Design Objectives Incorporating the colors of the asexual flag—black, gray, white, and purple—as primary hues throughout the app’s design will serve to visually represent and honor the diverse experiences within the asexual community. The logo design should embody the app’s mission of fostering meaningful connections and inclusivity, utilizing simple yet impactful imagery or typography that resonates with asexual individuals.

App Design Brief For designing the app, I started by looking into the branding and logo designs of similar apps and websites. Using this information, I moved onto designing several different logo concepts for approval and critique.

After two of the designs were approved, I moved on to recreating the logos digitally. With the logos complete with both colors and typography, I then began conceptualizing the app’s general layout and needed icons. A rough wireframe was built in Adobe XD with the required screens and options, and the final product was built on top of this wireframe.
