After watching a bunch of sci-fi movies, Blade Runner 2049, star wars and back to the future, I got into all the futuristic looks and ideas. This got me thinking about how my smart watch looked pretty ordinary. Sure, I had a futuristic screensaver, but everything else like the icons and widgets were just the usual stuff. Just out of curiosity, without seeking ideas elsewhere, I focused solely on what I had in mind and created these futuristic themed icons and widgets.
I imagined a scenario where:
Main audience: Students, tech and creative people.
Interests: Latest tech trends, personalizing their digital devices, being efficiently and cool with the help of productivity apps.
Age Group: 16-30 years.
Key Values: Efficiency and personalization.
Needs: features that optimize time and enhance lifestyle through technology.
Design Preference: Eye-catching and futuristic colour scheme of pink, purple, and blue.
This is what i came up with.
Pink, Purple, and Blue and a Dark theme. I opted for a something dark because the icons look more badass against a dark grey background, making it seem as if they're straight out of 2050.
Illusion.
These icons use a futuristic colour scheme to create an illusion of complexity. They're deceptively simple on the surface, yet hint at a deeper, more complex world beneath.
Precision.
Sharp and clear, these icons are designed with precision in mind. Developed using a grid-based system, each line is drawn to align perfectly with the underlying grid. This ensures clean edges, consistent spacing, and optimal scalability.
Revolution.
These icons are designed to stand out and show that we're ready for the future, challenging old ways and welcoming new possibilities.
Grid System.
This design system was used to keep all icons consistent and clear at any size. This method helps to align every detail, and to maintain their integrity and function in different contexts.
