Welcome to the design group!

Besides what others have commented, we have this page where you may get 
inspiration from and could add your proposal(s): 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Mimetype_Icons/Proposals

The issue about boring main app icon has been reported here 
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126074

And find more resources about the design team, eg. how to get in contact, at 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design (some nice chitchating on Telegram)

Cheers,
