I’m looking at the currency block. Each box has a colored “drop shadow”. I spent a minute or so trying to figure out what the significance of the color is. Finally, I noticed that the color appears to cycle between cyan, magenta, and yellow. Is this a design element only, or do the colors actually have some meaning with respect to the symbol?
Not the author, but it seems to be only stylistic
Purely cosmetic. In hindsight, probably unnecessary — but once you add color, it’s hard to stop
I was going to complain about something or other in the design but then stopped myself: we don't get enough quirky designs as it is.
