Project Description

MonoLisa is a monospaced typeface, developed for programmers.
Software developers always strive for better tools but rarely consider typefaces as such. Yet they spend most of their days looking at screens reading and writing code. Using a wrong font can negatively impact productivity and lead to bugs.
MonoLisa was designed by type design and programming professionals to improve developers’ productivity and reduce fatigue by extensively taking care of three important aspects:
Distinction, Space and Reading Flow

The design of the typeface adapts itself towards these three aspects.
MonoLisa is has a width of 640 Units, rather than the vast majority of monospaced fonts (600 units).
This ~7% increase allows better design of wider letters (W, M, etc.) and thus improves the overall reading experience.
The type family consists of seven upright and seven italic styles as well as a corresponding optional script variant which can be selected through OpenType.
