- The structural pattern is identical to Byzantine, heraldic, and interface design practice: establish a repertoire of visual forms with culturally-recognizable meanings, codify rules for their use, and maintain consistency so that users trained in the system can navigate and extract meaning rapidly, as Horton (1994) develops in his canonical treatment of icon design for software interfaces
