A Concept Redesign Of The Instagram Icon That Retains The Rainbow
By Dorothy Tan, 28 Jun 2016

Last month, Instagram revealed a new icon that features a simpler, flat design camera with a rainbow-colored gradient.
However, Bangalore-based Indian graphic designer Sumesh Jose has already given the popular image-sharing app’s icon the flat design treatment back in 2014.
In his redesign concept, more importance was given to the video function of the app, as represented by the play symbol in the middle of the icon—fans of the old Instagram icon would probably be happy to see that this redesign has also retained the iconic rainbow.
The designer has also shown how the icon was constructed on the grid, providing an interesting behind-the-scenes look at how he created it.
Head over here to read more about this redesign concept of the Instagram icon—what do you think of it?
