Elementaries styles

Created by a custom tool, Aithyra's elementaries appear in four different styles:

Visualization

Within this style, the elementaries display existing items or things. That could range from scientific visualizations to human elements such as hands.

Abstract

With this style, the elementaries are used to show more abstract matter and are used as a visual element. The tool can create abstract visuals that range from very structured layouts of elementaries to much more random placement. The abstract visuals nonetheless should never have a chaotic nature.

Type

The elementaries can also be applied to type. This style creates opportunities to animate type and for example, transition from one word to another.

Icons

The elementaries can also be used to create practical icons, for online and offline communication.

Elementaries applied

In application, there are three ways to use the elementaries:

• Solid: using the elementaries as a key visual or visual element
• Type container: integrating type in the elementaries
• Photo container: using the elementaries to reveal an image

Type container

When the elementaries are used as a type container, the following guidelines should be applied: the height of the text equals the horizontal margins.

Tool

An online tool has been developed to make custom asset generation much easier. It runs in any browser and is fully controllable via the UI on the left side. With just a few clicks, you can export both bitmap and vector pattern outputs from any input image. For more information about the controls, simply click the question mark icon within the app.
