Noun Project

I can’t in anyway claim to have found the website – the noun project, I was watching a YouTube video and it popped up in the 10 best apps for MacOS for designers or something along those lines.

The concept is simple, designers submit vector images on a daily basis covering virtually any subject you can image, a quick search within the site will return 100’s of designs in multiple styles and levels of complexity 

Coffee, for example, returned 1000’s of results, and you have the options to scroll through the icons in an infinity style page or as collection grouped by tags

After finding your perfect icon, a few clicks later it’s yours in either png or SVG format, the site is run on a subscription basis and at some very competitive rates too.

The site also has some native apps and plugins for your favourite design software, I’ve been using the MacOS app to search for icons and it’s as easy as the website.

Although I’ve had no commercial use for the noun project yet, and none of my work I’ve used the icons in has yet been published, I’ve had great success in using them to storyboard and mock up ideas for clients where we’ve later used photographs in place.

After all this talk of coffee and icons, I’m off to get one enjoy the noun project.
