Building on the Symbian brand A variation on the the existing Symbian brand theme incorporating crumpled and cut paper, ďŹat colour and hand-drawn elements. Icons and design elements Closely following the Symbian brand. Yellow ďŹlls and simple black lines have been used to deďŹne the icons, while a cut paper outline and slight drop shadow create the illusion of depth. Softkeys and overlays Simple and ďŹat.

- 18. 2. Neon Theme A light-hearted tech design inspired by original HitchhikerĘźs Guide to the Galaxy motion graphics by Rob Lord. A playful combination of technology and design Inspired by the original HitchhikerĘźs Guide to the Galaxy motion graphics by Rob Lord, this theme relies on simple, high-contrast elements to create a whimsical, sci-ďŹ atmosphere. Icons and design elements Simple, layered and semi-transparent line drawings create a neon look, and are complemented by the high-contrast dark galactic background. Softkeys and overlays The neon effect is reused, and combined with a partial black transparent background to provide clear visual separation for other design elements.

- 20. 3. Glass Theme A clean, modern design incorporating semi-transparent elements to enable extensive re-use and ďŹexibility. A conservative yet ďŹexible design approach The persona of Kim informed the need for a design approach that provided the community a solid foundation theme from which to build upon; and contribute back to. Icons and design elements Icons have been kept deceptively simple in this design to allow for customisation through colour alone. Crisp drop and inset shadows provide a sense of depth on almost any background. Softkeys and overlays The semi-transparent gradient enables reuse of buttons and overlays by blending with many background and colour combinations.
