Icon Competition winners announced
pkrass | 12 December, 2011 19:23
The winners have been announced for Nokia’s App Launcher Icon Competition. To enter, developers had to create a new, original app launcher icon for Series 40, Symbian, or Nokia N9 (MeeGo) platforms using Nokia templates, then submit the icons by 30 November. A total of 196 icons were entered by 103 developers. The winners, who will receive Nokia N9 phones, were chosen by how well they communicated the essence of each app, and by how well they matched the platform’s icon philosophy. The judges also sought icons that displayed simplicity, purity, friendliness, and fun.
And the winners are:
- Melon Mobile for its (soon to be published) Baby Monitor app. The icon uses a clever background colour, links to notifications, and highlights monitoring.
- Pixle/Trismer for its Bord chalkboard-simulator app. The icons uses bold, simple elements that connect with the target audience.
- Stephen Spencer for his Meex electronic music beat-matching app.
Also, special mentions were given to eight additional app icons and their creators:
- WaterBubble from Chintan Dave
- Kontact Touch/Notes from Nuno Pinheiro
- HappyRepublic Day from Sangram.
- Bunyi (soon to be released) from Dhi Aurrahman
- Pitu Hunt from Carlos De León
- LyricsQuick from Jaakko Koskenkorva
- Get a Cab! MY from Michelle Ng
- Toshi from Janez Vreček
