### Icon Usage

Take care when scaling icons across materials and placing near other design or text elements. The minimum sizing requirement is set at 0.5 inch (36 pixels) wide, which ensures maximum legibility when the icons are displayed at a small scale. To maximize impact, icons require a surrounding area clear of text or other graphic elements. Shown beside is the minimum clear space requirement. Icons should always include an even perimeter equal to 0.5 inch (36 pixels) in both height and width. They are available in color, as well as dark and light variations.
