Google is rolling out redesigned app icons that restore clearer visual differentiation while keeping Google’s four-color style.
Since I can't use the app itself, I thought I'll do a breakdown of what I can actually see - the app icon, it looks simple at first glance but it packs a lot if we can deconstruct it. I'm doing this breakdown as a fun exercise in design appreciation, I know my breakdown will probably not going to align with the authorial intent behind it. If you like this breakdown please share it, now let's dive in.
