Resumen de Diseño Con Ícono
A new icon is required for a smartphone App. The App will be available on the Android and iOS platforms initially. We have no preconceived ideas of how this will look hence we are requiring best practice design skills as well creative flare to give this icon as much stand out and meaning as possible.
App function:
The App will use the camera functionality of the smartphone combined with intelligent image processing to read a biological test strip for Legionella bacteria in water. The test is called Hydrosense, and in simple terms is like a pregnancy test strip where one or two lines will appear on the strip. One line indicates no legionella and two lines indicated the presence of Legionella bacteria. Legionella is found in Water so a water sample is put on the test strip then the smartphone app will then read the lines.
As well as reading the test strip, the App will also record many other water control tests such as temperature and pH levels, which are monitorred in controlling legionella and water hygiene more generaly. When the test strip has been read, and the other data collected, the App will then send all of this information to a cloud database.
Requirements of Icon.
1. It has stand out.
2. It draws on elements of the Hydrosense brand
3. The word below the icon will be Legionella. [You do not need to include the word Legionella in the icon - iOS and Android will do this automatically]
A user may only use this app once a month - so something which helps him find it by association with its use (storing data for water/legionella testing) is important.
Updates
Just to be clear, in line with normal practice we do not expect the "App Name" (Legionella) to appear in the icon itself. iOS and Android will automatically add this under the icon.

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: I'm happy we are heading in the right direction, but as the original deadline included a weekend I'm happy to extend the process a little to get the best designs. There are the beginnings of some strong designs in here - but still plenty of time for other innovative ideas to come through. Good news is having seen what is coming so far, we are happy to guarantee payment for the winner.

Requisitos
Debes tener
- Hydrosense is owned by Albagaia. A full set of brand guidelines for Hydrosense and Albagaia is available here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jsvwj2z47pb6x63/Albagaia%20Ltd%20Branding%20and%20Logotypes%20Guidelines%20September%202012.pdf .
Naturally the App icon should conform to Apple's and Google's expectations as described here: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/IconsImages/IconsImages.html AND here: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design_launcher.html
Agradable de tener
- NONE of the following are prescriptive but are ideas that have been kicked about [if we were creative we wouldn't need you though - so don't put too much emphasis on these]
Our thoughts.
· Water droplets are used
· Legionella bugs / bacteria are shown
· Hy for Hydrosense could be used
· Sky blue and lime green type colours are used for impact and contrast and also tie into the brand
No debería tener
- Beware just using a 'water droplet' as it is a very common device used in the industry for logos and we do want this to stand out.
