The brief we were given was to create 5 icons of 5 everyday objects in the house. First I wrote out notes of the brief and background we were given from the presentation, it included want the brief was, want it required, the types and style you could create. I moved on to different areas I could create icons on and decided on the technology appliances.

This page from my sketchbook is when I started exploring different designs for the different icons (I did a websearch for different ones on the market) most were straight forward like the phone, laptop and headphones. Others were more subjective like the tablet I added the pen to make it clear it was different from a phone, the other was the earbuds I was unsure on which of the 3 designs, the small buds, the long buds and the sport style buds to use, so I went and asked multiple people and it was unanimous that the long buds would be the most recognizable as buds.

I these pages are of ruff icons that I edited.

These are the screenshots of each item that are available.

These are images I took of peoples own technology to use as references.
