01The problem

Product identity / Background removal · 2026 · OPEN SOURCE
TrimBG
A product mark for TrimBG, a background-removal tool — built around a cutout silhouette, scissors and transform nodes.
The story
The problem, how I built it, and what came out of it.
02How I built it
A dark charcoal scissor cuts across a warm cream profile, and paired circular nodes give a before/after feel. Black, cream and terracotta keep the mark product-ready.
03The outcome
A compact icon that makes TrimBG’s job obvious at a glance.
