Colored Icons
BW Icons
Design Reasoning
I wanted to carry over the palette from the logo I had made, to help make things cohesive. Similar to the typography, I used curved shapes, and rounded out angles (like the triangle and the corners of the squares) to give it a more “friendly/playful” look. To help carry through this playful tone, I used unconventional colors for each of the objects.
As for the actual icons, I chose a paintbrush for my art gallery page; a pen for my written work section; film for my video/animation page; a face for my personal information page.
