What Open Doodles is
Open Doodles looks nothing like the flat vector style everyone else uses, and that is the whole point. The figures are sketchy and a bit wobbly, so a page feels made by a person rather than assembled from a template.
The set is small and the poses are generic — sitting, walking, reading — which makes them easy to reuse in different contexts without looking specific to one.
Good for
- A personal site, a blog or a portfolio
- Anything that should not look like a SaaS landing page
- Slides where a sketch reads friendlier than a diagram
Worth knowing
- The set is small — plan on using a few illustrations well rather than one per section.
- The sketch style clashes with a strictly geometric design; commit to it or skip it.
