Getting Started

My approach to designing new and sleek small illustrations for Airtable revolves around a meticulous fusion of simplicity and sophistication. By distilling complex concepts into visually compelling elements, I aim to create illustrations that not only enhance user understanding but also elevate the overall aesthetic of the interface. Through a process of iterative ideation and refinement, each small illustration is crafted with a keen focus on precision, ensuring a seamless integration into Airtable's sleek and modern design language.

The "frosted" look in the new Airtable icons holds paramount importance as it adds a layer of sophistication and modernity to the visual identity. This design choice not only aligns with contemporary trends but also imparts a subtle depth, elevating the overall user interface by providing a sleek and polished appearance. The frosted look contributes to a harmonious and visually appealing design language, enhancing the user experience within the Airtable platform.

A Cohesive Set

The importance of a fully cohesive set with unique style elements in icons cannot be overstated. It not only cultivates a visually harmonious and professional appearance but also reinforces brand identity. A consistent design language across the entire set ensures that users experience a seamless and unified interface, fostering recognition and trust. Each unique style element, thoughtfully integrated, contributes to the overall aesthetic, creating a cohesive and memorable visual language that enhances the user experience and strengthens the brand's presence.
