Parallelogram

The parallelogram icon represents skewed geometric shapes, perspective containers, and slanted design elements in design systems and layout applications. Featuring a parallelogram or skewed rectangular shape, this icon is commonly used to indicate skew transformations, perspective badges, dynamic design elements, and geometric shape selections in design tools, UI frameworks, and data visualization interfaces.

In modern applications like design software transformation tools, presentation slide designs with dynamic angles, or data visualization platforms creating skewed containers for emphasis, you'll see this parallelogram icon representing geometric skew options. It appears in graphic design software when applying skew transformations, in badge design systems when creating dynamic angled containers, or in presentation tools when adding visual interest through perspective shapes.

From a visual design perspective, the parallelogram shape communicates more than just 'angled rectangle' - it specifically indicates motion and dynamism, the illusion of perspective and depth, and the design technique of using skewed shapes to create visual energy and direction. This shape psychology helps designers add movement and contemporary styling to otherwise static layouts.

Parallelogram is one of 458 icons in Akar Icons, made by Arturo Wibawa and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds ParallelogramIcon to components/icons/akar-icons-parallelogram.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed ParallelogramIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Parallelogram icon, or any of 458 Akar Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Parallelogram is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Parallelogram", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. ParallelogramIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ParallelogramIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Akar Icons, Arturo Wibawa and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

6 other libraries draw an icon called Parallelogram. The Other libraries section on this page shows each one, so you can compare them and open the one that fits your style.

Its tags are shape, geometric and perspective. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Parallelogram in another set.
