The wave of icons as webfonts is upon us. Among the finest is Symbolset. Almost all options boast the cliché of legibility at small sizes, yet personality at large sizes, but what sets Symbolset apart is the advent of OpenType ligatures. JavaScript even translates these same features to the web.
Studiomates' Oak Studios are behind the service, with Alonzo Felix (Tightrope) and Mike Fortress (Deming) growing from their Lost Type roots.
Rather than keeping to in-house icon sets, Symbolset has gone on to publish SS Symbolicons from Sensible World and most recently SS Pika from Dutch Icon, making them a legitimate webfont icon foundry.
The site itself employs Michael Abbink's FF Kievit eloquently throughout, pairing robust weights at copy size with lighter text at larger sizes. The wordmark is in Kievit as well, with a 'y' based off of a rotated 'h'.
