Icons Gone Rogue: Because Design Never Goes as Planned

Playful Micro-interaction: When material icons go bad

Ever wondered what would happen if Material icons got possessed by an evil spirit? Well, here’s my take on that fun (and slightly terrifying) thought. What starts as a simple, clean design quickly takes a dark turn as the icons seem to develop a mind of their own.

I was inspired by the everyday frustrations we face as designers—because sometimes it feels like even the tools we trust the most turn against us. From innocent checkmarks to rogue elements, these icons have a mind of their own!

It’s a lighthearted take on the challenges we face in UI/UX design, wrapped up in a little animated irony. Let me know what you think—has an icon ever gone evil on you?
