A ‘Fluent’ Icon Theme for Linux Desktops

Windows 11 (and indeed many Microsoft products) now use the ‘Fluent’ design system — but you don’t have to switch to Windows or lock into its ecosystem to enjoy it.

Prolific Linux design champ Vince Liuice — his portfolio is impressive — has made an icon set for Linux desktops that draws inspiration from Redmond’s fancy ‘acrylic’ aesthetic.

The result is ‘Fluent‘, a striking Linux icon set that looks quite unlike anything else currently available. It won’t appeal to everyone’s tastes but Fluent is an interesting alternative to increasingly 2D, flat icons.
