Polar Bear's Lair

illustration isometric design

overview

For this project, I used Adobe Illustrator to create an isometric illustration that shows and raises awareness of climate change through the perspective of a polar bear. The concept centers around the polar bear’s lair, which symbolizes his home and safety. As climate change progresses, the lair begins to melt, representing the environmental challenges faced by polar bear and their habitats. As we see in the illustration, the polar bear is alone, signifying that they are endangered and are going to soon be extinct.

overview

For this project, I used Adobe Illustrator to create an isometric illustration that shows and raises awareness of climate change through the perspective of a polar bear. The concept centers around the polar bear’s lair, which symbolizes his home and safety. As climate change progresses, the lair begins to melt, representing the environmental challenges faced by polar bear and their habitats. As we see in the illustration, the polar bear is alone, signifying that they are endangered and are going to soon be extinct.

challenges

One of the challenges I encountered was manually creating the isometric grid, which was time-consuming due to the numerous lines I had to draw. On top of that, I had to used the pen tool to illustrate the ice blocks, the polar bear, and the building that only contained stairs. Each line had to be precisely calculated to maintain symmetry, making the process even more detailed and time-intensive.

solutions

To overcome this challenge, I dedicated a significant amount of time to focus on the project. By working patiently and carefully, I was able to ensure every line was accurately placed and symmetrical, allowing the isometric grid and illustrations to come together as planned.
