Concerns

  • Lightbulb - project is less about ideas than it is about finished tangible items that people want to share.
  • Handshake - is more 1-on-1

Good

  • Books
  • people
  • sharing
  • thought bubbles with books in them

Less is more, maybe two relevant images

Feedback

  • books in icon might be too library
  • want to focus on share & digital
  • thought bubble version feels too busy, so no on that one

  • try incorporating "knowledgebase" into shape of share/database icon

4/29 Notes

Link to Figma page

  • presented survey findings about which share icon and mobile OS Hack for LA community uses
  • presented text within database icon

Feedback

  • figure out how to apply findings to general public since iOS users is greater than Android in Hack for LA community, whereas it's not like this for general public
  • figure out how to warp text within outline of database icon shape

Action Items

  • if possible, attend Data Science CoP on Mondays 7 pm to see how to apply survey findings to general public data
  • find a way to warp text within outline of database icon shape

5/6/24 Notes

Link to Figma page

  • presented breakdown of survey findings
  • presented logo versions where I tried curved text

Feedback

  • try android share, as market is bigger there. each connecting line can be shown with text and circle can be filled
  • try Kittl, Canva to see if those tools can make text fill shape

Action Items

  • figure out how to warp text in shape
  • play around with designing Android versions of share icon

5/21 Notes

Link to Figma page

  • presented new versions of database logo, including warped text versions

Feedback

  • warped text share icon is hard to read, but it was nice to try out
  • logos 1&2, don't include "bop" in logo, so other brigades have option to add their name in; play around with arrow; maybe combine with arrow share icon
  • logos 3&4, perhaps text can be inside thin rectangle for line part
  • for Kittl2, try adding BOP in top oval, and split know-ledge-base into remaining 3 layers

Action Items

  • continue iterating different versions of logo for knowledgebase (refer to feedback notes)
