These symbols are from a Graphic Design I Project about developing symbolic imagery for concepts. For the topic of conservation, I brainstormed all of the connotative and denotative meanings and selected three categories of interest.
- Resources
- History
- Wildlife
From these three subjects, nine sub-categories were selected and imagery designed for each.
Resources:
- Recycling
- Ingenuity
- Rationing
History:
- Organic artifacts
- Industrial artifacts
- Recorded History
Wildlife
Nine symbols were generated with different methods, one category was to be illustrated from memory, one from a photo, and one from and abstract interpretation. From these nine symbols, twelve more were developed by creating hybrids of the concepts. After selecting the three most successful, I used illustrator to re-create and iterate the idea with the pen tool. The three I selected were Recorded History (abstract)+Industrial Artifacts (memory) for history, Sea (memory)+Air (photo) for wildlife, and Recycling (memory)+Ingenuity (abstract) for resources.
Here you can see the progress of the sketches.
