Language Icon


Language icon is an icon designed for people to select a specific language to use when they face multi-lingual, multi-national websites. Language icons use widely recognized symbols to help users identify the language they want to read on a website.

Language icon was designed by Onur Mustak Cobanli and his team in 2008 when they planned to build a multi-lingual, multi-national website. After the first language icons were rejected, the design contest was organized by A’ Design Award & Competition. Farhat Datta designed the winning entry, “Turnstile Language Icon.”

A’ Design Award & Competition, Farhat Datta, and Onur Mustak Cobanli have released language icon designs under a Creative Commons license, with some conditions. The license is semi-noncommercial, meaning that it cannot be used for profit but is otherwise free for use and modification.
