Monad Sans is a typeface that builds on traditional and modern grotesques — aspiring to be a modern workhorse, rugged but not wooden, geometric yet limber. Available in eight weights, it has a medium x-height and generous character width.
The font family inherits some of the forms of an italic face, with a curl on the bottom right terminals of R, m, n, h and u. Otherwise sharp letter forms have an open appearance, drawing focus from each character through the text. The design is intended to work well in digital environments, balancing the needs of smaller text and display sizes.
Monad has an extensive glyph range, covering Western, Central and South Eastern European Latin and basic Greek. For digital contexts, it is packaged with common icons and pictograms mapped to valid Unicode points.
OpenType font features such as discretionary ligatures, tabular and old-style numerals, small caps and stylistic sets are also included.
