Oneline Illustrations - Chapter 1 People At Work

The style: one stroke, one colour, a lot of loops

The black line is the whole drawing. It runs from the back of a head down an arm, across a keyboard and into the edge of a sofa without a break, and you can see where it doubles back on itself to close a sleeve or a collar. Because it's drawn with pressure on a Wacom, the weight changes along the way: it thickens where the hand slowed on a curve and thins out to a hairline at the ends. Faces are made from the same loop, so a nose turns into a brow and a mouth is one short hook.

Colour is a single pastel per scene, sky blue or soft pink, laid down as a flat block that sits slightly off register from the line. It lands on the things that matter in the scene: a laptop screen, a pair of trousers, headphones, a coffee cup, a VR visor. Behind the figure, a thinner line in the same pastel scribbles in the setting: monstera leaves, a shelf, sofa cushions, wall frames, a standing desk. Those background strokes are loose and repeated, almost like a doodle in the margin, so the person always reads first.

It isn't corporate, and it isn't cute. Figures are about six heads tall with real proportions, eyes mostly lowered to the work, and there are no ground shadows or full backgrounds. It's calm, a bit messy, and clearly drawn by a person.

What is inside

All 50 illustrations are scenes with one or two people, drawn on square artboards. Some are in blue and some in pink, and you can switch any of them to the other colour or to your brand colour.

• Remote and desk work: laptops on knees, on beanbags, cross-legged on the floor, at monitors

• Business and teamwork: a shared office with a standing desk and an exercise ball, wins and small celebrations

• SaaS and tech: tablets, VR headsets, phones and screens in use

• Music: headphones on, working to a soundtrack

Who it is for

SaaS teams are the obvious fit. A project tool's empty dashboard, a "you're all caught up" inbox state or a remote-team onboarding flow needs a person who looks relaxed at a laptop, and these do exactly that without adding visual noise to the UI.

Agencies and freelancers building sites for coworking spaces, recruiting pages, productivity apps and podcast or music platforms will get a lot from the headphone and celebration scenes. Content teams can use them as blog headers on remote work, focus or burnout, where a photo would feel too literal.

One opinion: the line art holds up best on light, quiet layouts. On a dense dashboard, pick the simpler single-figure scenes and give them room.

How to use it

In Figma, drop the SVG in and recolour the pastel fill in one click, since each scene uses a single accent. Our SVG colour editor does the same in the browser if you want to match a brand hex before export, and the GetIllustrations Figma plugin lets you search and place scenes without leaving your file.

For React or Next.js, inline the SVG so you can swap the accent with a CSS variable for light and dark themes. In Webflow, upload the SVG for crisp lines at any size. Illustrator users get the AI files, so you can change the line colour, scale it up for print, or pull a figure out of its background scribble.

Formats and technical

Every one of the 50 scenes is a full vector, editable and scalable without losing that hand-drawn line.

• SVG for web, apps and Figma

• PNG with a transparent background for slides and docs

• AI source files for Illustrator

• Square artboards, one accent colour per scene

You can use these illustrations in personal and commercial projects, client work, websites, apps, presentations, marketing, print, video and social posts, and you can recolour and resize them. You can't resell or redistribute the files on their own, put them in templates or themes for resale, use them as the main value of merchandise, sub-license them, or use them to train AI. Attribution isn't required.

Pairs well with

If you like the single-stroke idea, the earlier Continuous Line Illustrations Chapter 1 covers everyday life in a two-colour palette, and Continuous Line Chapter 3 SaaS Business adds 75 more product and team scenes for a bigger app. The Continuous Line collection groups that series at a lower price, and the hand-drawn style page has the rest of the library drawn the same way.
