Filip Gres is a passion-driven designer with a growth mindset born in Slovakia and working remotely from beautiful Prague. As a design lead at e-learning startup Mimo, he oversees the creative direction and the design team.
His love for detail and the lack of unique, robust icon sets let him create a GriddyIcons icon set that is unique in its style and growing monthly by hundreds of icons.
WORKSHOP
Icons play a fundamental role in any design system or product experience. They serve as visual touchpoints that guide users through digital experiences, making them essential for effective navigation and interaction.
In this workshop, you'll learn how to craft a unique icon system fitting the brand's visual language and what makes an icon system look and feel cohesive. Once we outline the design direction and understand the key elements of the icon's consistency, we dive into crafting the icon set itself. You'll get a masterclass in icon creation in Figma, and you'll be able to apply the knowledge you learned to create a robust, flexible icon system for your product.
