Odisseia is a humanist sans monospace type family.
The family consists of Light, Regular, Bold and Black + Italics.Odisseia sets a little shorter in comparison with other monospaced fonts. The x-height is rather large.
Before making it, I didn't quite know how versatile a monospace could be.
This is our first release with Universal Licensing (exclusively at Plau's site): one single price for desktop/webfonts/ebook.
We designed a cool launch site for it at https://plau.co/odisseia/
And if you like getting to know more about the process, here's a Medium post: https://medium.com/@plaustudio/odisseia-a-monospaced-made-on-earth-by-plau-85fa0034c5fe
Thanks and join the mission

The ampersand is rather lovely!
About the video: I'm kind of disappointed. I was expecting something more exciting—but maybe that's because and idea of a typographic music video or something has been haunting me recently.1 -
Thanks for the pointer Adam
I guess I have to up my video skills. The idea was to play on the opening sequence of the Space Odyssey itself. Promise to work harder next time!0
