Icon Inspiration: making the most out of space by Nikita Golubev
If there’s something that makes an impression right away when you look at the icons that Nikita Golubev has designed and that you can find on their Flaticon profile, is the fact that Nikita’s icons make the most out of a relatively limited space.
As you know, working with vectors allows you to work at any size, but for the icons to still look good when you make them a small size, you need to know how to make the most out of space in your square canvas.
Nikita Golubev’s icons manage to fill up the space with rich shapes and colors, yet the vectors don’t feel like the space is cluttered at all. Every element is important and manages to earn its spot, managing to achieve enough detail to create more complex shapes and concepts.
As you probably know, representing certain abstract elements in the shape of vectorial icons can be quite the challenge, because you have to focus in an idea and you have limited resources to convey meaning. But amongst icons as complex yet balanced as Nikita’s, you will surely come across the one that you hadn’t been able to find in any other place!
