A practical first project
Generate a set of six icons and three social visuals in the same reference style. Then adjust the vector curves and colors directly in Studio.
Create six icons and three social visuals for our brand. Use the same color palette and visual language. Output the icons as editable vectors and keep the Design Kit ready for further assets.
Two ideas for your working day
Plan a small icon set instead of a single image
Describe three icons for your services with the same specifications for lines, colors and perspective. Generate them with a vector model and export SVGs for the website. Compare stroke widths and readability at small sizes so the icons also work as a coordinated set in proposal documents.
Recraft: AI Vector GeneratorSimplify handoff to the designer
Export a selected vector illustration as an SVG and pass on the editable file together with color values and intended use. Your designer can then adjust outlines and colors without redrawing the image. Check its appearance after importing it into the layout software actually used.
