Forma DJR Mono

Spearheaded by Ruggero Magrì, the typeface reconsiders DJR’s revival of Forma for use on a monospace grid. At the same time, it preserves the subtly rounded corners and tapered stems that evoke the physicality of ink on paper that Roger Black sought to preserve when he commissioned the revival. Following its proportionally-spaced cousin, Forma DJR Mono embodies the cleanliness and precision of midcentury design but tempers it with subtle imperfections that come from its origins in metal type. Monospaced typography was shaped by typewriters and early digital displays, but Forma DJR Mono is not a distressed typewriter font nor is it a purely digital creation. It exists somewhere in-between.
