Miami University Icons

Project

Create a set of icons for the Creative Arts Department at Miami University to be used across both digital and printed materials

Timeline

Four weeks

Context

I created icons based on different majors within the Creative Arts Department. These sections include Architecture, Studio Art, Music, and Fashion.

Stylizations

Miami University Brand Standards for Icons

  • Stroke or line weight at 4pt

  • Knockout line weight also at 4pt

  • Glare line used on fill components (4pt) with rounded end caps

  • Rounded corners on exterior points (0.05 in)

    • For lines; outline strokes and add rounded corners to exterior points

  • Consider red and white balance, unless the icon need dictates otherwise

    • Try to maintain more white than red.
