BnbIcons: Turn Text into Beautiful Airbnb-Style Animated Icons with AI

What Is It?

BnbIcons is an AI-powered tool that generates and animates isometric skeuomorphic icons inspired by Airbnb’s latest visual style. Users can simply enter a text prompt or upload a reference image to quickly create high-quality, 3D-like icons — and even add smooth animations to them. It’s a powerful and intuitive tool for designers, marketers, educators, and creators looking for fresh, stylish visuals.

Key Features

• AI Text-to-Icon Generation
  Enter prompts like “Eiffel Tower with a park” or “California roll” and get beautifully rendered skeuomorphic icons in seconds.

• Animated Icon Output
  Add clean, subtle animations to your icons with one click to bring them to life.

• Reference Image Input
  Upload an image as a visual reference so the AI can generate icons with a matching aesthetic.

• Batch Generation Support
  Generate multiple icons around a single theme (e.g., a full set of massage icons) in one go.

• Instant Use, No Signup Required
  With over 500+ icon examples already available, you can explore, generate, and export with minimal friction.

Technical Principles

• Text-to-Image AI with LoRA Fine-Tuning
  Built using the Flux.dev model and LoRA fine-tuning, the platform leverages Replicate’s API to transform text prompts into images.

• Animation Synthesis via Ltx Video
  Static icons are automatically animated using Ltx Video on Fal for smooth motion effects.

• Cloud Architecture with Modern Front-End
  Built with Lovable for UI and powered by Supabase for storing and managing icon data, offering a seamless user experience.

• Community-Driven Feedback Loop
  Ongoing feedback from users is being used to refine model outputs; upcoming features include adding “seed” parameters for consistent style generation.
