Symbolic Labeling: The Art of Labeling with Style

Symbolic labeling is an ancient art form, used to convey meaning without actually saying anything.

It's the art of using symbols, shapes, and colors to convey complex ideas in a single glance.

In this example, we see the power of symbolic labeling in action.

Imagine an elevator, where the button for the top floor says GO TO THE TOP OF THE CHART

The user doesn't need to read the words, they just need to see the color and shape.

The button's bold, black font and bright blue background make it stand out, and the arrow symbol → clearly indicates the direction.
