As any arachnologist will tell you, if you play with a web, you are likely to get stuck to it. (note to self – is this why its called the web?) I have indeed got stuck to it and I want to tell you about one that is useful…
When designing materials for businesses, you might find that you need to create icons to illustrate a way of communication or a function that the business offers. One place you can got to for inspiration is https://fonts.google.com/icons
The wonderful thing about Google’s Icons is that they are completely free. Free to use, free to adapt and free to use on anything you want. The only thing you are not allowed to use is the ‘Google Sans’ font, which can only be used still within Google.
You can adjust them within the website and select which one you want… and you can then either download it as a SVG, PNG or even the code for a variety of platforms! It even gives you options for Android or iOS icons!!
For anyone looking at starting in design or doing stuff in-house for your boss, this can save you a load of time… once you have stopped browsing through all the variations on offer (there are over 2000!!). Check it out!
