Today is the 128th Icon of the Day! To celebrate such a nice, classic icon number, we’re celebrating with this really fun disco ball from the 285 glyphs we created for Patreon. It’s so abstracted from the actual object, yet still recognizable!
A little while ago, we crafted a full set of chess glyphs for Deep Green on iOS. Each one was meticulously drawn from its 3D model in the app, with special care to clearly indicate their relative hierarchy in the lineup.
We don’t get to draw a fingerprint icon too often. But for Dailymotion, we needed one for biometric settings. It’s more airy / less dense than typically seen in other apps to match the overall vibe of this set of 187 icons.
One of 56 emoji we created for the Playdate Developer Forum. Everyone needs a spa day, even Playdate. Kick back, pop in those cucumbers, and relax.
*Do not actually put cucumbers on your Playdate, probably. That might not be covered by the warranty.
The twelfth day of Christmas. A few years ago we created this app icon for theDrumDictionary, with a simple overhead glyph depicting a drum and a pair of drumsticks resting on a cheerful, playful, and colorful background.
The eleventh day of Christmas. Primaries is our stock icon set of 784 icons !⃝, available for only $100. In 2016, we added some instruments including this clarinet, which can also represent woodwinds as a whole.
The tenth day of Christmas. When we made 159 icons for Nike, we took many opportunities to tie metaphors back to the brand. For this glyph, we incorporated a basketball jersey as an alternate.
The ninth day of Christmas. For Messenger’s 331 icons, several were of people. Compositions included solo, as a pair, and in a group. In addition to gendered figures with hairstyles (like this feminine glyph), we also created a figure without hair.
The eighth day of Christmas. In 2023, Parakeet made 24 icons for a Weber accessory that would display glyphs at a smaller, fuzzier resolution. This cow was drawn with that in mind, simplifying shapes down to simple angles and a blockier form.
