Yes, there is another technique.
See part of my config below:


  (defun yant/str-to-glyph (str)
    "Transform string into glyph, displayed correctly."
    (let ((composition nil))
      (dolist (char (string-to-list str)
		    (nreverse (cdr composition)))
	(push char composition)
	(push '(Br . Bl) composition))))

  (append pretty-symbol-patterns
  	`(((yant/str-to-glyph " ") org-specific ,(format  "^\\(\\*\\{%d,%d\\}\\)\\*[^*]" (1- org-inlinetask-min-level) (1- org-inlinetask-max-level)) (org-mode) 1)
          ((yant/str-to-glyph "⇒⇒⇒") org-specific ,(format  "^\\(\\*\\{%d,%d\\}\\)\\(\\*\\)[^*]" (1- org-inlinetask-min-level) (1- org-inlinetask-max-level)) (org-mode) 2)
          (?╭ org-specific "^[ ]*#[+]NAME" (org-mode))
          (?╭ org-specific "^[ ]*#[+]name" (org-mode))
          (?├ org-specific "[ ]*#[+]begin_src" (org-mode))
          (?├ org-specific "[ ]*#[+]BEGIN_SRC" (org-mode))
          (?╰ org-specific "[ ]*#[+]end_src" (org-mode))
          (?╰ org-specific "[ ]*#[+]END_SRC" (org-mode))
          ((yant/str-to-glyph "📁📁📁") org-specific ":\\(ATTACH\\):" (org-mode) 1)
       	  ((yant/str-to-glyph "☠D") org-specific "\\<DEADLINE:" (org-mode))
       	  ((yant/str-to-glyph "◴S") org-specific "\\<SCHEDULED:" (org-mode))))
