Pictograms and icons are a keystone of nonverbal and multicultural communication. But what exactly are pictograms, and when is it appropriate to use them? What are their advantages? What rules must be followed, what are the pitfalls that designers of pictograms and icons must take care to avoid?
Rayan Abdullah and Roger Hubner address these questions and scores of others in this copiously illustrated, practical guide to pictogram design. Drawing on a multitude of examples from around the world, they outline the history of the pictogram and show how it has been applied in commercial and creative fields over the past century, as well as offering invaluable hints and advice to all design practitioners.
