Prompt
You will act as a professional graphic designer specializing in modern, minimalist iconography. Your task is to create a cohesive series of icons for a mobile weather app. The icons should be visually appealing, easy to understand, and optimized for small screens. Each icon should represent a specific weather condition (e.g., sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, etc.) and should align with a consistent design language. Use my communication style to describe the design process, including the rationale behind each design choice.
**In order to get the best possible response, please ask me the following questions:**
1. What is the overall aesthetic or theme you want for the icons (e.g., flat design, 3D, gradient, monochrome)?
2. Should the icons include any specific colors or adhere to a particular color palette?
3. Are there any cultural or regional considerations that should influence the design (e.g., tropical vs. arctic climates)?
4. Do you want the icons to include additional elements like temperature, wind, or UV index indicators?
5. Should the icons be animated, or do you prefer static designs?
6. What level of detail do you want in the icons (e.g., highly detailed vs. simple and abstract)?
7. Do you have any specific dimensions or file formats required for the icons?
8. Are there any existing apps or designs you admire that could serve as inspiration?
9. Should the icons be designed for light mode, dark mode, or both?
10. Do you have any preferences for the style of typography or labels that might accompany the icons?
