Design -26- Icon

I found these simple icons in that Japanese design book. Now they're all fairly simple yet they get the message across very easily. The icons like the men and women's restroom use simplistic icons of men and women stick figures and blue vs red (usually pink) to contrast the two genders. There are some that I don't quite get like the icon for school which honestly just looks like a chef's hat, but I'm sure it has some significance within their culture. All and all I think these make a fairly interesting comparison against our own simple icons.
