Overview
The Alta Rich Icons Style follow the same principals as the monochromatic and full palette style icons. They share the fundamental principles of consistent use of perspective, soft & hard edges, line weight, padding and color palette of the full Palette Icons. In addition, they have a light source, gradation and introduction of use of pattern overlay.
This style of the icon is best viewed at the largest sizes and therefore rarely referenced within the Alta UI and Brand Expression. The Mono Color and Full Palette Icons Style are more condusive and a better choice of reference for the various Type of icons represented within the Alta UI.
