A new approach on the Hackerspace Frankfurt logo design.
Design pattern
- Pixel-by-pixel edit - traditional 8-bit Pixel-Art
- reduced color palette - 3 colors
- Large pixels, 5x5 or 6x6 magnification
- no smoothing, no anti-aliasing
- no dithering
- Outlined with dark background
- Background shadow
- second layer, using #282828 background only
- GIMP Gaussian Blur - radius 4 × pixel-size (20 for 5x5 pixels)
Palette for web images
| #f8f8f8 - Foreground |
| #f0ad5e - Highlight beam |
| #282828 - Dark background |
3D-printed badges
- Simple converter using Processing to convert Pixel-Art to height map for OpenSCAD
- grid size 3 × 3 mm per pixel
- background - 1.2 mm height
- foreground - 4.0 mm height
- beam - "holes"
- cubes are slightly "oversized" by 1/10th mm for connected pixel mesh
- Import to OpenSCAD
- mesh rendering
- STL output
- Printed by yag-freak's Prusa Mendel
