Something are just beautiful …may not be for a good reason
Lets see if we can learn from a story
I am Bill Atkinson!
I am holding theApple mac its first user Interface
Ohh.. BTW I was the lead graphic programmer during early Macintosh development days
I am very happy today because I have cracked a great deal of stuff
I went to Steve…yes Jobs
Hey Steve! You know what? we can now draw shapes on our
screens
Great Bill!!!..
BUT
Is it possible to draw rounded
rectangles
No. I don’t think it is technically possible..
How do we program them.
Why do we need them in the first
place
Rounded Rectangles or Stuff
Is everywhere..

Why Rounded Rectangles Became An Intelligent Choice?
Is it because of Synesthesia? – Syn-es-the-sia
Web DefinitionSynesthesia can be described as a state of mind when you experience an external sense at the same time a parallel internal sense.
For example, some musicians reported seeing a particular color while playing a specific instrumental chord. And some people see a particular texture/color looking at an letter/number.
In a Synesthesia experiment letter ‘A’ is most likely to be associated with color Red

Simple task of matching the words with shapes
Across all cultures – results are same…
We internally group sharp and edgy colors, shapes together.
And rounded and muted sounds and colors and shapes together
May Be I Can Use A Bad Example to Explain…
I think that’s why we all like rounded rectangles!
Let’s understand more scientifically

information
Sensory system
There is a visible difference…
Our visual system recognizes the two shapes differently
‘T’ cells used by our sensory system helps us recognize different shapes by recognizing their sharp edges and corners
Because of this nice alignment our visual system has the perception of a unified shape
On the right hand side – these cells align themselves differently and our visual system recognizes them as two shapes
It is possible that..
You may not know…
Our visual perception system can play really tough

So… what is so difficult in branding????
What does your logo say’s
Slide 39
“E” and “x”. The negative space those 2 letters create, form an arrow pointing to the right side. This signifies forward or moving forward and this is what the company does.
The shape of 3 stripes on the Adidas Logo represents a mountain, pointing out towards the challenges
The logo has an arrow pointing from A to Z. This signifies that they sell everything from A to Z. The arrow also forms a smile.
The simple logo icon contains the letters V and W: “volks” means “people” and “wagon” means “car”.
The BMW medallion represents a propeller of a plane in motion, and the blue represents the sky. This is because BMW has built engines for the German military planes in World War II
