Questions
How big is the Bixel PCB?
It measures 500 × 500 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Bixel use?
575 parts, built around the 74HC595. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Bixel KiCad files?
From the ManiacalLabs/Bixel repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/16x16/Bixel.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Bixel design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
