05 Week- Project 3

I learned that there are six different types of Icon styles. They are outline icons, filled icons, glyph icons, flat icons, hand drawn icons and skeuomorphic icons. Outline icons is the easiest way to start drawing for beginners and they are icons that are just outlined from an icon. Filled icons is the next step you would take after outlines which is becoming popular. Glyph are just solid icons. Flat icons usually uses "flat" colors. It is just gives more of a variety of outline icons. Hand drawn icons are just hand drawn. Skueomorphic is making it look very realistic.

I learned a lot from icon design but what I can take the most out of Icon design is that a picture speaks so much louder than words. An icon gives so much because no matter what language you speak everyone can understand an icon. I thought the Skueomorphic style was so cool it actually made the icon stand out the most and the texture to detail was amazing.

I went on pinterest to find some icons and I found the emoji icon created by Icon Utopia. I found that very interesting because we basically use them everyday and I just found them so funny because you can do anything with them. The second icon that I found to be interesting was a BMW car, I am huge into cars so that is why I picked it. I like the BMW so much is because he made the logo on the car even though it is very small I know my cars.
