Why do we use icons as usual? At first, they do composition more lively, more comfortable and more understandable. Each article, even the most strict, will be more understandable and more friendly with icons.

There are many reasons to use icons:

  • They do page more lively
  • Icons are universal, because they are understandable for people, speaking in different languages, even if they don't understand whole article. That's why you should see many icons in airports when you see text (exit, direction, where is WC etc.)
  • People's perception of objects and symbols is faster than perception of text
  • When you remember sign, next time you will find function with this sign (without text) — its easier
  • Icons use less area than text. You should use it in small area
  • When you see icon at first time, next time you will simply adapt to similar icon (for example, when you need to save some information you search a sign "floppy disk").
