Team Building

A question that I may want to explore :
How can a set of characters become recognized as part of a group or team?

             

Unifying design elements can show character relation.
                  -Logos
                  -Aesthetics
                  -Colour 

                  -Pattern

What makes a good design aesthetically pleasing?

                -Silhouette
                -Iterative process
                -Shared Vocabulary : overt references
                -Shared Vocabulary : subtle references
                -Pattern Recognition
                -Scale
                -Pose
                -Mixing influences
                -Putting a twist on a familiar idea
                -Focus attention with contrasting detail
                -Symmetry & Asymmetry
