Graphic Design 1: Symbol Methodology

For the symbol methodology project, we started by coming up with a topic that would be an umbrella for our symbols. My umbrella topic was running. We went through a process of creating icons and stylizing them, to hybridizing different designs together. I think this project really showed the importance of process. It was through the process that I was able to create something abstract that still fell under the category of running. I started with literal representations then when I started making non-objective symbols, it opened up a whole new world of creating for me. My symbols embody the concept of running by incorporating themes of running within each symbol. Together, they make a system that represents running. Overall, I was satisfied with both the process and end result. These symbols allow you to think and go deeper into running.
