A growing icon library with a range of unusual styles
Uicons is a growing icon library for Figma and the web featuring extraordinarily well-designed standard icons for modern UIs, plus some truly unusual icon styles, which you won't find anywhere else.
👋 Hello PH community,
I’m Pascal, maker of Toools.design. After 4 years curating all kinds of design tools I finally created my own.
While building uicons I realized that most icon sets and libraries feature similar styles all over again. So I wanted to come up with something different and had a lot of fun creating unusual styles like InkTrap, Cyber, Angled, or FluidPixel. I would love to hear your feedback, especially on those! :)
Later, it became actually a lot of hard work, and it was a fight to reach the finish line. I'm all the more excited to show you today what I've been working on for the last months.

So what’s uicons about? 🤔
With 3,000 icons organized into 6 different families, with up to 5 different weights, accounting for 15 variations per icon, you get a very versatile and flexible icon library that can be used for a multitude of use cases. Included are:
► 2 extraordinary well-designed standard families: Round and Straight, optimized to be used around 24px for modern UIs.
► Plus 4 pretty unusual families: InkTrap, Cyber, Angled, and FluidPixel. To be used either also as small UI icons to get a unique touch for your interface or as bigger standalone graphics to make your projects and content stand out.

What sets this icon library apart? 🔥
Of course the unusual styles that you won’t find anywhere else, but there’s more:
► Meticulously crafted and consistent
All icons went through multiple rounds of testing and refining to be extra consistent even across families, so you can use different styles of icons in the same project which makes it even more unique.
► Very well-balanced and harmonious
I skipped the old 16px grid in favor of a much more balanced and beautiful 96px grid utilizing the golden rule to create very harmonious icons for modern high resolution screens.
► User-friendly icon browser
Easily find, copy, paste, or download designer and developer-friendly SVG icons into your designs or development environment.
► Well-organized Figma Library
Swap icons and change styles superfast. Most of the icons are highly customizable, and you can easily change stroke width, corner radius, color, and more in Figma.
► Take part in our development
Vote on features in our join-in roadmap.
► Much more to come
Many more icons are already planned so that the amount will be doubled soon and support for more platforms is underway.
