Designing a web browser icon for an app named Nanuk, inspired by the endangered polar bear. Three service icons were required for navigation, weather, and security functionalities.
DESIGN THINKING
Designing a minimalistic icon set for the Nanuk app using earthy tones to convey the Arctic environment and its challenges. The polar bear icon captures the app's core theme with a pixelated design against northern lights. An Inukshuk for navigation provides guidance, while an iceberg icon for weather reflects the polar bear's habitat. A paw print icon for security highlights protection and personal information safety.

DESIGN making
The polar bear icon combines earthy tones and minimal detailing with a pixelated effect for a modern touch. The northern lights backdrop adds vibrancy and depth. The navigation service icon uses stylized Inukshuk shapes to match the app’s minimalist aesthetic. The iceberg icon for weather features clean, subtle colors to evoke the cold Arctic climate. The paw print icon for security balances simplicity with precise detailing, emphasizing user protection and privacy while maintaining a consistent look across all icons.
It took some effort to ensure that all the pieces fit together just right, requiring careful attention to detail. I persevered and made significant progress. It was difficult to choose from various options, but in the end, I found the perfect combination that resulted in a truly exceptional final product. Seeing everything come together so smoothly! This achievement fills me with a sense of accomplishment, that the final product will not just meet but exceed expectations.
