The Iconfactory worked hand-in-hand with the team at Twitter to develop a fresh, new suite of emoji icons for the web. Twitter wanted light-hearted, fun versions of the familiar icons users around the world know and love. Initial design explorations centered on a simple, flat style that would be easily identified as uniquely Twitter’s. The Iconfactory worked with the Twitter design team to develop the style, and over two and a half months produced more than 800 individual emoji optimized in multiple bitmap and vector formats.
