OBJECTIVE
This project was to create a series of three icons for an electronics store. These icons can be used as an in-store signage and a wayfinding method for online sorting. By simplifying the selection of props to the most basic level, a specific, unique and expressive message about the object is conveyed.

APPROACH
The reason for choosing these three objects is that they are one of the electronic products that people often use in their daily lives and people have a certain understanding of them.
The objects in the three icons are different from the popular versions nowadays, and look more like the design versions from 5 years ago. Because the earlier versions were simpler in appearance and did not have a lot of details, while nowadays the best-selling handles or mice have a lot of new buttons, which are redundant to the simple icons, so I discarded them.
At first the choice of color is not black and white, but the use of a variety of colors. However, when the icon was designed, the rich colors made the icon cluttered, so the final version is simple black and white, which is also easier for people to understand the message of the icon.
