Create Isometric Designs with Affinity Designer

In this tutorial I’ll be demonstrating how to create an isometric grid with Affinity Designer, then I'll be using it as a reference to design an isometric storefront icon.

Isometric design is a style of illustration where objects are drawn in a flat 2D environment, but they appear as if they’re 3D. Another characteristic of isometric design is that it lacks the realistic perspective that a 3D illustration would typically have.
