Iconography<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">Iconography is the system of symbols, icons, and pictograms that support your brand communication. Consistent icons help users navigate, understand information, and recognize your brand at a glance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>What to define:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Icon style:<\/strong>\u00a0Linear, filled, outlined, hand-drawn, isometric<\/li>\n<li class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Line weight:<\/strong>\u00a0Thickness of lines (consistent across all icons)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Corner style:<\/strong>\u00a0Rounded, squared, or mixed<\/li>\n<li class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Size:<\/strong>\u00a0Standard sizes for different applications<\/li>\n<li class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Color usage:<\/strong>\u00a0Primary colors, secondary colors, or single color<\/li>\n<li class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Consistency rules:<\/strong>\u00a0When to use filled vs. outlined, color vs. monochrome<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1\u00a0<strong>Icons should feel like they belong together. A consistent style creates visual harmony.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>2.
