Quadraat Sans Mono
<p>TYPE BY Quadraat Mono is a monospaced variant of the Quadraat superfamily of fonts. Just as the other Quadraat designs, Quadraat Mono brings the unruly and characterful vibe to a genre that is notoriously shy and calculated. Quadraat Mono goes the other way around and gives any line of code the friendly kick.</p> <p>Quadraat is Fred Smeijers' first commercially released typeface (FF 1992). Originally designed for the eponymous Dutch design company Smeijers was a co-founding member of (currently name “het Lab”), Quadraat combines Renaissance elegance with contemporary ideas on construction and form. Quadraat sans was designed second, and commercially released in 1996.</p> <p>Over the past two and a half decades after Quadraat's initial release, several other versions have been designed: Quadraat Sans, Mono, Display, and Headliner. All Quadraat fonts carry vibrant, powerful outlines, but they aren’t of the loud-mouthed, fun-font variety. Equally Quadraat didn’t fall prey to stiffly dated feel or outlines. Quadraat strives for a sort of understated noticeability we don’t see much anymore.</p> <p>The TYPE BY Quadraat fonts were fully remastered in 2019 and had been re-hinted to meet the demands of the current digital technology.</p> <p>Quadraat Sans Mono fonts come in two weights of roman and italic designs, available in two widths. Its character set includes figures; fractions; superiors, inferiors, numerators and denominators; mathematical and monetary symbols; standard ligatures; and a complete range of accents for all Western, Central and East European languages based on the Latin script.</p> <p>Quadraat Sans Mono fonts are available in OTF CFF, TTF, WOFF, and WOFF2 formats. Legacy font formats are available on request.</p>
