40 Minimalist Icon, Symbol & Pictogram Sets

August 2, 2010 by Jon 32 Comments

Minimalism is always a hot topic in web-design and there are many well-crafted minimalist websites and interfaces out there.

While searching for some icons for a recent project I came across some great minimalist icon and symbol sets and thought I’d expand my search and share my findings here with you.

Please note that some of those sets are not free and of course make sure you read the license before using them.

    Hey Jon. Awesome collection and totally bookmark worthy (and done on Delicious). I was actually just looking for some stuff like this the other day, and I know this will come in super useful in the future.

    Of course, the other day I couldn’t really find what I was looking for – so I just went ahead and created my own icons!

    Cheers, man!

    Great collection! Thanks for the round-up.
    ==================================
    Note to ICON ARTIST:
    Please ask yourself why you think showing a 3.5 inch floppy to signify “save” is still valid. All teenagers living today never knew what a 3.5 inch floppy was.

    And please ask yourself why you don’t include [HD] in your designs?
    Please join us in the 21st century…it’s kinda cool!

    A really useful collection of icons here, I’m always searching for neat looking icons for my website designs.
    I like the iconic icon set in particular as they would work well with for a professional website design because of the minimalistic, clean design.
    However i also like the simple small icon set, i think they would work really well on a retro themed website.
