My name is Louie Mantia. I’m an artist and designer, with a 20-year focus on icon design and illustration.
I’ve designed for Apple, Disney, Pixar, Nike, Starbucks, Target, Notion, Patreon, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger. I also developed alien languages for Rebel Moon on Netflix and created artwork for Shanghai Disneyland.
I have a creative collaboration with Luka Grafera called Parakeet, an icon design studio. We’re excited to help you with projects of any size.
In addition to writing this blog and making icons for fun, I also create playing cards for Junior, fonts for Crown, and apps for Kadomaru.
