Processing is a widely used programming language and environment, which allows the circulation of ideas amongst users. This is fundamentally the concept of my app and so in order to portray this connection, my app will echo elements of design within Processing. The icon attempts to portray the digital environment, using receding tones of blue to create a sense of endless space and depth, and interestingly a physicality and tangible quality. The notion of pattern and connections an individual envisions with digital technology is illustrated by the connecting white lines, which is carried through to the logo'P' in sans serif, basic font assimilated with code writing. I think the angular forms are most to credit for the sense of digital connections and make-up which will work well in my own app.
The design of apps is very vast ranging from the really low tech almost clip art gimmicky apps to the sleek, graphic lifestyle or business apps such as 'goop' or 'nike'. There are a few constants and common design elements however: The tool bar at the top of the screen gives the screen/page name and a 'back' button
The keypad (if applicable) uses the standard iphone/ipod layout and keys in grey and blue
Majority of buttons or windows have rounded edges and have a gradient shift to appear convex.
