    APPLICATIONS OF 2D COMPUTER GRAPHICS IN DESIGN
                     2D shapes are essential for creating structured, balanced, and visually appealing graphics. Some
                     key applications include:

                     1.  Logo Design: Many  company  logos  are built  using  simple  geometric  shapes  to  create  a
                         memorable and scalable design.

                     2.  User Interface (UI) Design: Buttons, icons, and navigation elements in apps and websites
                         often use basic 2D shapes for consistency and usability.

                     3.  Illustrations and Animations: 2D vector-based illustrations and animations rely on shapes
                         for character and environment design.

                     4.  Infographics and Data Visualization: Charts, graphs, and diagrams use 2D shapes to present
                         information clearly.

                     5.  Print and Web Design: Posters, banners, and digital advertisements use 2D shapes for layout
                         and composition.

                       ▶   Illustrations are visual representations created to explain, decorate, or enhance a concept, story, or idea.
                       ▶   Raster images, also known as bitmap images, are made up of a grid of pixels.
                       ▶   Vector illustration is a type of digital image made using lines, shapes, and curves instead of tiny dots (pixels).
                       ▶   A file format is the way digital files are stored and organised so that a computer can read and display them
                         correctly.
                       ▶   2D (two-dimensional) shapes are geometric figures that have only width and height.
