Description
Learn how to design visually engaging and cohesive icon sets in any program. I’ll teach best practices on brainstorming icons, finding the right metaphors, sketching your ideas, and finally designing high resolution icons and simple icon versions that will work on smaller screens.
Although I’ll be teaching you in Adobe XD (because it is free), I’m going to cover tools that are also found in your favorite design programs including:
Adobe Illustrator
Sketch
Figma
Affinity Design
Invision Studio
and many more
The concepts you learn here can be put into practice for web graphics, web design, interaction design, graphic illustration and much more.
Things you will learn in this course include:
Overview of Adobe XD
Understanding types of icons and when to use them
Creating a design brief and planning your icons to have a consistent style and colors.

Setting up your workspace for icon design
