Monument Grotesk Font

Monument Grotesk is a sans serif digitized and reinterpreted by Larissa Kasper and Rosario Florio from letter contours they found in an online scan of Palmer & Rey’s 1884 New Specimen Book. Compelled by the forms’ compact skeleton, high vertical contrast, and sharp end strokes, the Swiss studio Kasper-Florio developed it as their house typeface; ABC Dinamo released it to the public in 2018. Honest, unrefined, and idiosyncratic, it has a raw, unpolished confidence. The family is available in seven weights, with italic, mono, and semi-mono cuts, as well as Heavy and Black with corresponding italics.
