Icograda

Icograda is a very intresting website with hundreds of graphical design from many artist. These are 2 artworks in this website.



Career Development Center identity of Anatol Kuzmi. These symbols represent for stair's steps from low to high of the career and they also show the position of a worker at each step (for example: the lowest step is the employee bowing and the last step depicts the stance of the big boss).



Hiroshima is a poster of Tarik Jesenkovic. I like it because it uses a very simple shape to express the meaning. This poster is inspired from the national flag of Japan with the meaning that Hiroshima is the black point of the human history.

Hey Phong,
I do like these artworks.
They look kind of simple and usual, but the meaning is so great!
The 1st one makes a deep impression on me bc of its plain shapes but outstanding meaning. Since Japanese custom is the juniors need to bow when seeing the seniors.
The 2nd one is kind of abstract due to its implication. But I like the way just only a black circle is used to represent the whole terrible and crude war.
Another thing is his style of using fonts. The fonts are always fairly plain, but that's its simplicity making people concentrate more on the shapes and the signification of the picture.
