Vintage illustrations, texture packs, and VS Code extension

From flowing lines to subtle surfaces, this month's update brings a bit of everything. New illustration sets. New textures. A handy VS Code extension. And a timely icon set for fans of red jumpsuits and masked games.

Here’s a quick rundown of what’s new and where it fits in your workflow.

Design’s Forgotten Romance

Some brands aren’t supposed to feel 'polished'. They’re supposed to feel cinematic. Emotional. Larger than life.

We've added new Art Deco vectors to bring you that richness, nostalgia, and romantic visual storytelling.

We were inspired by the bold, sculptural lines of 1920s toasters, the opulence of Ritz Paris, Madeleine Vionnet’s iconic Art Deco gowns, and the striking visuals of Erté (Romain de Tirtoff).

Art Deco illustrations works well for bold, elegant, and structured layouts. You can use it for luxury branding, high-end events, or projects that evoke a sense of nostalgia.

Art Nouveau illustrations add a flowing, organic feel. Ideal for beauty, fashion, or anything with a romantic or handcrafted vibe. You can use them in boutique perfume brands, artisanal jewelry, or eco-conscious fashion brands.

Vintage Text Dividers ornaments are perfect for separating sections in a romantic/classic way. You could use them in upscale menus, wedding invitations.

Cursor and VS Code Extension

Our new Streamline extension is now available on VS Code.

Not using VS Code? No problem!

As part of our commitment to open-source, we've also published our extension on Open VSX which is the largest open-source VSX extension repository. With this you can download it on Cursor, VSCodium, Kiro, and other VS Code forks. Just open your IDE's extensions section and search for "Streamline Icons".

Background Patterns

Sometimes a solid background feels too flat, but bold textures are too loud.

Our new Light & Dark Subtle Patterns add just enough depth to keep things cohesive.

Light patterns work best on bright or white backgrounds to add gentle depth.

While dark patterns are great for dark mode designs or muted color schemes.

Geometric & Organic Textures

Even good design can feel unfinished without the right detail. This is why we have textures.

Textures help add depth, personality, and visual interest to designs. They’re super versatile and can be used as backgrounds, overlays, or accent elements.

Seamless textures are designed to tile perfectly (you can repeat them across a large area without seeing any edges or breaks). They’re ideal for backgrounds, sections, or patterns that need to feel continuous.

Non-seamless textures aren’t made for repeating. They’re better used as single images, like hero backgrounds, overlays, or decorative accents where a unique, non-repeating look is preferred.

New Squid Game Set

A playful icon set inspired by Squid Game, perfect timing with Season 3 now streaming. From masked guards to honeycomb chaos, these icons capture the tension, charm, and dark humor of the series. Free to use and share.

Free and Pro Versions

As always, Streamline has a generous free tier that you can use, with large sampler packs. The pro version is available via a subscription as well as via a lifetime plan.

Thanks for choosing Streamline! If you've designed with Streamline, share it with us. We'd love to see!
