Design guidelines

Consistent use of stroke widths, style and metaphor is necessary for icons to feel streamlined in the design system storybook.

Do

Draw simple objects that are easy to identify.

Don’t

Embellish icons with unnecessary details.

Do

Create icons that are outlined.

Don’t

Fill the icons, unless that icon has an interactive state.
