초록

본 연구의 목적은 UX/UI 디자인에서 아이콘 요소로 활용되고 있는 특수 문자의 체계를 정리하여, 명확하지 않은 사용 규정에 대한 개선 방향의 근거를 마련하는 것이다. 목적을 달성하기 위한 연구 방법으로 UX/UI 디자인과 특수 문자의 이론적 배경을 고찰하고, 특수 문자와 UX/UI 디자인의 연관성 및 당위 과제를 발견하였다. 그리고 사례연구로 기업의 UX/UI 아이콘 디자인 가이드라인에서 활용되고 있는 특수 문자의 체계를 정리하여 연구 결과를 도출하였다. 분석 결과, UX/UI에서 활용되고 있는 특수 문자 종류는 도형 문자, 수학 기호, 문장 부호, 괄호였다. 그리고 분석사례에서 공통으로 빈번하게 사용되는 특수 문자는 ▶, ♥, ★, ○, ⊙, +, ×, ⋯ 였고, 이에 대한 사용 체계를 정리하여 표준화 근거 자료로 제시하였다. 본 연구의 자료가 특수문자 체계화에 관한 연구의 관심도를 높이는 데 기여하고, 향후 기준의 틀을 마련하는 데 도움이 되기를 기대한다.

The purpose of this study is to organize the system of special characters as UX/UI icon design elements, thus laying the groundwork for improvement direction for unclear use regulations. This study examines the theoretical background of UX/UI design and special characters and discovers UX/UI design and special characters' relations and assignments. Besides, the case study summarizes the system of special characters being utilized in the company's UX/UI icon design guidelines to produce the study results. As a result of the analysis, the special character types being utilized in UX/UI were graphic characters, mathematical symbols, punctuation marks, and parentheses. And the special characters commonly used in analysis cases, iOS, Android, and Windows, are ▶, ♥, ★, ○, ⊙, +, ×, ⋯. So this study organizes the common characters to standardize them. Hopefully, this study contributes to increasing the interest in the study of 'special characters' in the UX/UI design field and helps establish a framework for future industrial standards.
