What Icon Generator Does
Icons serve as the shorthand version of your brand. This tool generates marks that distill your logo's essence into a form that works at the smallest sizes.
Icons inherit shape language and visual cues from your approved logo direction.
Outputs are designed to remain legible from 16×16 favicons to 512×512 app icons.
Generated icons respect your approved color palette and contrast guidelines.
Store approved icons in your Asset Library for consistent use across campaigns.
How to Generate Icons
Ensure you have an approved logo saved in your Asset Library. Icon Generator uses your logo's shape language as a foundation.
Describe where the icon will be used — favicon, app icon, social profile, or product UI. Different contexts require different levels of detail.
Review outputs at their intended display size. A great icon at 256px may lose clarity at 32px — test both extremes.
Compare finalists against your primary logo to ensure visual consistency. Save the best to your Asset Library.
Best Practices
- Keep icons simple — the fewer elements, the better they scale down.
- Use your brand's primary or accent color to maintain instant recognition.
- Avoid fine details, thin lines, or text that becomes illegible at small sizes.
- Generate a set of variants and pick the one with the strongest silhouette.
Design your icon mark and logo as a system. The icon should feel like it belongs with your logo even when they're never shown side by side. Use Icon Generator after finalizing your logo for the most cohesive results.
