Abstract

Symbols convey important information to people. International symbols are recognized internationally because of their simple and clear, while regional symbols derive from the influence of their local culture and have strong cultural characteristics. By investigating the existing problems of Xuanwu Park icons, this paper takes regional symbols as the research core, and explores the conversion methods between international symbols and regional symbols. The design integrates the traditional culture and the historical information of the Xuanwu park to create a icon system that conforms to the regional culture of the park. Two methods of icon design are summarized: one is based on the traditional symbol simplification generated icon, the other is a new icon created based on the existing international symbols combining regional culture. It is clear that international symbols and regional symbols should be a inclusive and interrelated relationship, which provides reference for design of regional symbols in future.
