RecycloBot
Project Objective
The goal was to create a double-sided instruction sheet that’s both informative and visually engaging. One side would feature a poster-style photograph with environmental factoids and the logo we created, and the other would have the step-by-step assembly instructions. The robot is designed for kids aged 6-10 and focuses on teaching them about recycling in a fun way.
Photographing the RecycloBot
Taking the right photo was key to making the instruction sheet engaging. Here’s how I approached it:
- Lighting: Made sure the photo was well-lit.
- Background: Background was kept simple and clean to avoid distractions. Added in some daily lights for fun.
- Composition: The Recyclobot was the main element of the photo.
- Editing: After taking the photo, I cropped it, cleaned up any sensor dirt, and adjusted the white balance to make sure it looked perfect.

Logo Design:
A key focus of this project was developing a logo that aligned with the brand’s identity. The goal was to create a design that felt playful and approachable for a young audience. We incorporated a robot character to capture kids’ attention and used a palette of varying blues and white to reinforce a sense of fun, friendliness, and trust.
Conclusion:
The final design is vibrant, fun, and easy to follow, perfect for kids aged 6-10. The combination of a fun photograph, engaging factoids, and clear instructions ensures that assembling the Recyclobot is a great experience for children while also promoting environmental awareness.
