Context

A personal exploration in crafting a custom icon set. This project focuses on building a cohesive set of icons from scratch, balancing simplicity and scalability to support digital interfaces with clean, functional visuals.

 

The idea behind this project first emerged years ago, when I was still working as an art director. It was a time when high-quality, consistent icons were hard to find, and existing sets often offered very few variations for the same concept.

 

From the beginning, the goal has been to share this set freely with the design community. With no fixed deadline (sometime soon!), the project continues to evolve organically and will be available for download on Figma Community and other platforms, in multiple formats including .otf, .svg, and maybe .font.

Here’s a preview of some icons from the ongoing set
