Customizing Icons to Complement Fonts

Even neutral-looking fonts have near imperceptible characteristics that determine their look and feel. In this talk, I'll demonstrate how to identify these font characteristics and apply them to your icons with the goal of making them complement a UI's font. We'll look at detailed examples, show how to sharpen your eye for doing this type of work, and discuss possible pitfalls.

A talk by Gleb Stroganov, Product Designer at Evil Martians, Bites & Bytes meetup for developers and designers in Lisbon, September 2023.
