Design Concept
My concept in this design is combining three subjects to form a single icon including icon simplicity. The three objects represents a two books that are perfectly perpendicular to each other, magnifying glass used to read the book and combined objects forming letter " R " with the connection to its original design icon.

Benefits/Improvement
In this new designed logo, it will provide more detailed, creative and attractive icon display based on the application. The original logo is quite simple and can't easily determine what is the application for, so I created a simple design that will best fit for the application with the same color variant to make a better comparison and also from the application name itself.

Tools
I used the Adobe Illustrator CC 2015 in the creation of this new icon as well as the presentation
