Professional icons look clean because they're built on math, not guesswork. In this hands-on, technical class, Jason Hoppe teaches you the structural discipline behind unified, scalable icon sets in Adobe Illustrator — the kind you can drop into any UI without a single wobbly edge.
Jason breaks down the systems that separate amateur icon work from professional-grade libraries: construction grids, geometric primitives, and Illustrator's boolean operations. You'll move past sloppy path-drawing and start building pixel-perfect vector assets with the kind of precision and consistency that makes an entire icon set feel like one cohesive family, not a pile of mismatched shapes.
This class includes a dedicated 30 minutes of Q&A directly with Jason Hoppe.
What You'll Learn
- How to build pixel-perfect construction grids that keep every icon crisp, not blurry, on screen
- How to combine simple shapes into complex icons using Illustrator's advanced shape-building tools
- How to optically balance geometry so icons look visually centered, not just mathematically centered
- How to apply consistent stroke weights, corner radiuses, and bounding boxes for true proportional unity
- How to use boolean operations and geometric primitives to work faster and cleaner
Who It's For
- UI/UX designers who want to build custom icon systems instead of relying on stock libraries
- Digital illustrators looking to sharpen their vector precision and construction technique
- Graphic designers ready to move from freehand shapes to a structured, repeatable icon workflow
- Anyone who wants their icon sets to look unified, professional, and screen-ready
