Details

Your Sweet Spot Life is seeking a creative team to design a cohesive collection of graphic icons for their website. The goal is to enhance user experience by providing visually appealing and intuitive icons that align with the brand's aesthetic and values. These icons will be used to represent various sections and functionalities on the website. The project offers learners the opportunity to apply their graphic design skills and knowledge of user interface design. The team will need to conduct research on current design trends and ensure that the icons are both functional and visually consistent with the existing website design. This project will help learners understand the importance of visual communication in digital platforms and how it can impact user engagement.

Deliverables

The deliverables for this project include a set of 10-15 custom-designed graphic icons that are ready for web implementation. Each icon should be provided in multiple sizes and formats (e.g., SVG, PNG) to ensure compatibility across different devices and screen resolutions. Additionally, a brief design rationale document should be submitted, explaining the design choices and how they align with the brand's identity. The final deliverables should be organized in a digital folder for easy access and integration by the company's web development team.

About us
We are capturing what it means to be Canadian—one resource, one product, one story, one experience at a time. Our process begins with local natural resources, crafted by passionate creators who turn raw materials into meaningful works. Each creation tells a story—of learning, making, and transforming—connecting us to our culture and community. Through these efforts, we showcase how creation inspires, empowers, and leaves a lasting impact on those who experience it.

Motivation and Ideology
We are driven by a commitment to reshaping the way resources are sourced, products are made, and communities are supported. Our goal is to create sustainable, high-quality goods that reflect Canadian culture and values, challenging traditional models of production and consumption.

Resource Development
We work tirelessly to find truly Canadian resources, overcoming the challenges posed by global outsourcing. Partnering with universities and local groups, we aim to discover, develop, and utilize local materials for a sustainable, ethical product line.

Creation and Innovation
Through collaboration with creators, we develop innovative products that highlight Canadian craftsmanship and creativity. Our focus is on providing the tools, resources, and support to help creators build products that are both sustainable and meaningful.

Community Engagement
We believe in the power of collaboration and are actively working with local businesses, schools, and community groups to foster long-term, sustainable growth. By building strong partnerships, we support the development of local industries and create a more resilient economy.

Market and Sales
Our marketplace serves as a platform to sell not only our own products but also those created by other local artisans and businesses. By offering sustainable, high-quality products, we aim to make ethical consumption the easy and logical choice for consumers.

The Vision
Our vision is to build a self-sustaining ecosystem where Canadian resources are prioritized, and businesses are empowered to thrive. We are working towards creating resource hubs and a CRM system that will streamline the development of local products and services, creating a lasting impact on communities and industries.
