THE METHOD / ART · CREATIVE WORKSHOP
One idea.
Your own symbol.
Design a sign for a library: it must work on a poster and as an icon.
Construct a proposal in the editor. Then, in the comparative trial, save A, change one relationship and save B. Test them before deciding. No universal meanings are attributed to the shapes.
A BRIEF TO BEGIN
Create with an intention.
You can work freely or use these ideas. The comparative trial below completes the brief.Drag a shape to move it. Arrow keys: move; R: rotate. Guides and selection are not exported.
Clear the entire composition? You can restore it with ‘Undo’.

Begin by adding a shape.
TEST / COMPARE / DECIDE
One reference. Another possibility.
Save the canvas as reference A. Then change just one relationship: distance, size, rotation or ink. Compare the two images before choosing. The title and explanation remain those of the current work.
The reference is saved only in this browser.
GIVING THE PIECE MEANING
Preserve your piece.
The shapes have no compulsory meaning. Describe which decisions you made and what you would change in a second version.
Add shapes and an explanation. A brief's formal conditions are also checked.
The work is saved in this browser if local storage is available. Download it to keep a copy. It is not synchronised with your account. The image and explanation are downloaded separately.
YOUR RESULT · FOR FURTHER THOUGHT
One composition. Decisions you can explain.
What you have checked
You have constructed a piece and left an explanation of your decisions. You can compare it with reference A, change one relationship and review it again.
What remains open
The review checks shapes and the brief's conditions. It does not assess artistic quality or attribute a universal meaning or efficacy to your symbol.
IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE
From the game to a complete reading.
The Art sample develops a useful question for your work: how do what you want to express, what is visible and the viewer's context relate to each other?
