Flat Icons - on/off and animated

If you prefer flat icons for your Fibaro Z-Wave Gateway, you can find some to download at 

Please login or register to see this link.

I prefer designing such minimalistic icons to give the HomeCenter a more modern look. Some SmartHomeConsult clients want exact replication of their expensive design lamps. I'll do such work on demand.

  • Thank you. I am not really a fan of skeuomorphism in user interfaces (photorealistic 3D-Icons). Since Apple has switched completely to flat design with iOS7 this has changed a lot. Also Google Android Lollipop is flat now with Material Design. This is obviously the current trend in human interface design.

     

    In this article I explain the different design principles.

    The colorful and detailed fibaro Icons are done nicely but I never really liked them. This is why I started this project for a client with generic flat icons (that are free do download). I now do custom work on demand for exact replicas of expensive designer lamps too. Too bad that you cannot change the icons that appear on the first screen.

    Here you see a before and after comparison.
