About this icon

Use the Buildings icon

Icons in the fill style — like Buildings — are designed for interface components and product UI. Use it across general-purpose product UIs, design systems, component libraries, web applications, and marketing sites for a consistent, professional look.

IconStash's editor lets you fine-tune color, size, and stroke width in real time, then export in the format that fits your workflow: SVG, PNG, JSX, or CSS background-mask.

Export formats

Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.

All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Buildings icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Buildings is drawn on a strict pixel grid with hard edges and no curves that rely on anti-aliasing. That is the point: it stays crisp at exact multiples of its native size. It suits retro, game and terminal-inspired interfaces, and looks wrong if you scale it to arbitrary sizes.

UX best practices

As a general interface glyph, the Buildings icon does its job best between 16px and 24px, sitting next to a text label. Icon-only treatments work for a small set of universally understood actions, but comprehension falls off quickly once the action is specific to your product — so when in doubt, add the word.

Use in your project

React / npm — Pixel Art Icons

npm install pixelarticons

<!-- Direct SVG import (recommended) -->
<img src="node_modules/pixelarticons/svg/buildings.svg" alt="buildings" width="24" height="24">

Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Buildings icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
