Hi
The aim of this project is to design a series of 7 icons that each represent the 7 environmental Leave No Trace principles.
[1) Plan Ahead and Prepare][1]
[2) Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces][2]
[3) Dispose of Waste Properly][3]
[4) Leave What You Find][4]
[5) Minimise Campfire Impacts][5]
[6) Respect Wildlife][6]
[7) Be Considerate of Your Hosts and Other Visitors][7]
The icons will be used as navigation controls on each frame of a SVG presentation. Hopefully also be used in many other ways as well.
You can see the presentation here [login to view URL]
(view in firefox or chrome - not IE)
Features I am looking for
a) Clearly convey the meaning of each principle.
b) elegant, 'simple', and memorable design
c) Australian context
eg if using a picture of an animal - avoid using a bear or tiger)
d) Hiking context
IE travel on durable surface will be about someone walking (not 4wd or riding a bike)
e) A linear array of icons (principle 1 on the left and 7 on the right)
Open to other ideas here - just what I have in my mind.
See more details below
The winning entry will the the most elegant solution that best conveys each of the 7 principles.
Hope that all makes sense, let me know if you have any questions.
Enjoy
Matt :)
## Deliverables
Key concepts/messages to consider for each specific icon/principle
1) thinking, planning, organise, prepare
2) leave no footsteps, stay on track, don't step on plants
3) carry out rubbish, rubbish in pack, 'pack it in pack it out' , bury toilet waste
4) do not touch engravings, treat the bush as a museum, do not touch the art
5) use fuel stove, if lighting a fire keep it small
6) do not feed/pat animals, let animal by wild, watch from a distance.
7) be friendly, look after signs/fences, keep groups size small, keep noise level down.
Open to colour, shape ideas - no real set idea there.
