Monolisk

MAY 09th 2020: Monolisk 1.6 update! HUGE update to the whole family. Re-written fraction code to be smart and contextual. Improvements to case sensitive features including hyphen, enDash and emDash. Improved vertical metrics for better rendering on Windows. Redrawn and amended paths, and improved kerning. --- Monolisk is a rigid, gothic typeface that draws on inspiration from Eastmodern and Brutalist architecture. The letterforms are modelled on post-Soviet buildings known for their visual rigidity and solid construction. Monolisk has been described as resolute and unapologetic. Personally, I choose to take that as a compliment. The design manages to deliver a dominant sense of uniformity, to the point of obstinance, while small unruly facets help to create an undertone of rebellion and dissent, providing an element of quirk and personality. A small poke at the old Soviet socialist paradox of lack of freedom through uniformity. --- Included 5 weights, 10 styles Light, Regular, SemiBold, Bold, and Black with corresponding italics OTF, TTF, WOFF & WOFF2 Latin & Cyrillic --- Supports 40 Languages: Afrikaans, Basque, Belarusian, Bosnian, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Faroese, Filipino, Finnish, French, Galician, German, Icelandic, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Kazakh, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malay, Mongolian, Norwegian Bokml, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swahili, Swedish, Turkish, Welsh, Zulu. --- Open type Features Stylistic Alternates Custom and Arbitrary Fractions Lining Figures Tabular Figures Slashed Zero Ordinals Small Caps Capitals to Small Caps Contextual Alternates Standard Ligatures Discretionary Ligatures Case Sensitive Forms --- View the Monolisk Specimen over here --- Updates and fixes: We often make changes, tweaks and improvements to our typefaces.
