Assembly is an app that is helps to create icons, logos and scenes using a building block approach to design. Available on iPhone and iPad, Assembly earned its place in the best iPhone apps list by enabling users to easily create endless smart vector images without having to sit at a computer. being able to stay mobile and expand your creative imagination whereever you travel.

Rather than wasting precious time on creating your own vector shapes, you can choose out of Assembly’s library of over 180 basic shapes that you can then fit together to make larger designs, either over a plain backdrop or on top of a background image. I find this feature to be really helpful when working on project with limited time and a tight deadline.

It’s a building-block approach to design that might sound a little simplistic, but it’s been put together intelligently and with just enough tools to enable you to craft detailed images in minutes – perfect for creating designs when you’re on the move. As a young designer, I have to say this tool and many like it are worth exploring. Assembly is a free app in the App Store and worth the time if you are someone who wants to expand their toolbox.
