The macOS App Icon Book

Hi Dribbble 👋 I just clicked the big green 'Launch Campaign' button on the Kickstarter for The macOS App Icon Book— The sequel to The iOS App Icon Book. A project I have been working on for more than a year.

A celebration of app icon design on the desktop

The macOS App Icon Book is a beautiful artbook dedicated to preserving the craft of app icon design. It's a vibrant journey through the art of desktop app iconography for macOS. The book features hundreds of icons created by designers and developers from around the world over the course of more than a decade.

The icons in the book showcase conceptual and executional excellence in icon design and create a tapestry that tells the story of visual design on one of the most influential platforms of our time. It is both a source of inspiration and a historical archive, inspiring new work and preserving old icons for future generations.

The hundreds of works of art in this book have been carefully curated, obtained from the teams that produced them and arranged into beautiful spreads that explore a wide range of themes and styles.

It has yet again been an incredible honor to collect, curate and write this book with the help from amazing people on a subject that’s been such a guiding force in my career.

I hope you’ll consider helping me bring this book into the world.
