Description: Mato is a modern-looking icon pack for Linux. Inspired by Googles Material Design guidelines, these icons are made to look simple and colorful with subtle use of shadows. The icons are based on their original icons so they stay recognizable while gaining this new look.

Just wanted to say that this is a really nice icon theme. I know that its not a complete icon theme, and that building a full icon theme can be time consuming. With that being said, I can't wait for the final release. Its nice to see a new icon theme with so much promise instead of seeing people post the same icon themes over and over again.
Thanks for the positive replies!
I once had Paper as the secondary icon theme, but I wasn't really satisfied with it. Many icons didn't look like the original icons at all, which is one of the things my icon pack tries to achieve. This and some other things made the other icons look a bit out of place. So I decided to just use the default one. You can however set a secondary icon pack yourself if you really want this.
I personally use and develop the icons with a light theme but it should work fine with both light and dark themes. Some dark icons however can look a bit less noticeable on a dark background. I just created a light/dark toggle on the website (https://flipflop97.github.io/Mato/) so you can see for yourself how it looks.
Very nice theme! As VentGrey say, maybe it's a good idea to use another theme for the missing icons (like flat remix, Oranchelo or Papirus) until it's complete. Anyway, nice work!
The theme looks great alongside papirus (To complement the missing icons), but the overall design is great! Is this planned for dark themes, light themes or both?

9 Apesar de poucos ícones são excelentes! Seria o padrão perfeito do gnome. Parabéns!
There are very few icons. Wired connection icon passed. At least all of the gnome icons have to be. Hope grows over time. Thank you
