Here comes something refreshing! I’m happy to show the app icon for Lemon Schedules.
From the beginning, we really liked the idea of using a lemon slice as the main clock face (especially since the clock handles form a “L”) 🍋

I couldn’t wait to show you the app icon, and now it’s finally here! 

The word “Söka” is Swedish and means to search for or seek something, so we thought a telescope would be a great icon. 

And boy, did we have fun designing all the alternative icons. Can you unlock them all?

Alright, here we go! I’m delighted to show the app icon for Owncasts 📺 
The iOS icon was already fun, but what’s even cooler is that we designed a dedicated tvOS icon for it. That means it’s a PARALLAX APP ICON! 🤩

I was today years old when I found out that Sketch has a built-in way to set the anchor point when rotating layers 🤯
What a time saver! 🤩

Made in Sketch. With only one layer 😅 #SketchDesignChallenge

What is your happy place on the Internet at the moment? ✨

I always enjoy the challenge of designing proper lens flares… 😁

I am very happy to reveal the new icon for Itemlist! 
During the design phase we thought about many different objects to show as many use cases as possible 📚👜⚽️📷

With spring just around the corner, today seems like the perfect day to share the new app icon for Plant ID 🌻
So go take a short break and escape to some warm vibes 🌼

Happy Monday to y’all! Super stoked to share the new app icon for Astro ✨🛰️
We’re pretty happy with the result as it relates to both the name and what Astro does.

It’s here! I’m happy to present the new app icon for Disk Drill 5.

It’s a great honor to be able to give such a well-known app a new look—especially since we wanted to keep “the professor” and yet create something completely new 👨‍🔬
As always it's entirely #MadeWithSketch

Working on 16 × 16 icons is still one of my favorite things to do 🥰

Delighted to share the new app icon for Coach Board! I especially like how the whistle hangs out of the drawer, adding a nice little detail to the icon.

Yo, check it out! I really dig this fresh, vibrant new look we’ve given Usage’s new app icon. Can you “feel” it? 📊🔋⚡️

Here is a cute one! I’m very happy to show the new app icon for Woolly. It was really fun to work with fabric textures!

Been quiet on the work front for a while, so I’m thrilled to announce Gowalla 2.0 is now live! Love this team, and the product we built together. It’s not perfect, but it has soul. https://www.producthunt.com/posts/gowalla

“Prepare for the Unfork-gettable.” 🍴📊
I am happy to present some alternative app icons for FoodNoms. The first question was how the existing icon could look like in 3D. The result shows the bar graph with a subtle but noticeable perspective.

The time has come, it’s live! I’m incredibly honored to have some of the Mac app icons I’ve designed over the past few years featured in Michael’s macOS App Icon Book! 🤩 
If you like app icons like I do, this piece of art history is a must for your book collection! 💯

Been zhuzhing this up for the past few weeks, and it went live earlier today! And then funded in less than 2 hours! 😱 Even if you’re not a web dev person, check it out for the video alone.

I still can’t quite believe it, but my face made it into a book. I’m very honored to be able to share some thoughts in the macOS App Icon Book. 
Thank you, Michael, for putting so much time and effort into making this book a reality! 💛

“Locking in Style” 🔐📈
Here comes the new app icon for VaultValue. Two things we liked particularly well: 
First, the two halves form a “V”. 
Second, if you read from left to right, the icon reflects the name—Vault on the left, Value on the right.

A little surprise app icon reveal before the weekend! Make way for Pines, the ultimate camping companion, just released on the App Store. Be sure to check it out! 🏕️🚀
After many iterations and an intensive study of pine cones, we are very happy with the final result! 🥳

I still have no words for Apollo closing down in a few days… It’s just so sad since it was one of my favorite apps of all time. I’m incredibly proud to have contributed a small part to it and I will miss it once it’s gone. Didn’t even get the chance to show this cutie… 😢

Happy Halloween! 🎃
Super excited to show the spooky alternative app icon for Dex! Although the main object is a pumpkin, there are also some Pokémon-related Easter eggs. Can you spot ’em all? 🧐

The best new Sketch feature: On-Canvas information for gradients! 👨‍🎨🤩

New icon design for June: We wanted to expand the branding by creating an icon with subtle depth and juicy colors, without losing the origin of the actual logo 🧃☀️

Designers, which tool are you using to build animations for iOS these days?

“Hoop, There It Is” 🏀
I am very excited to share the app icon for Elite Hoops. It was important for us to stay close to the branding while creating something new for the icon. And boy, does the icon look good on the home screen! So stay tuned!

Happy #PortfolioDay everyone! 🎉

As pointed out by Roman, it’d be cool if macOS app icons had dynamic backgrounds based on the time of the day. So, it got me thinking, “What it…?”
