Space Mono is an original monospace display typeface family designed by Colophon Foundry for Google Design.
It supports a Latin Extended glyph set, enabling typesetting for English and other Western European languages.
Developed explicitly for use in headline and display typography, the letterforms infuse a geometric slab core with novel over-rationalized forms.
Space Mono is available under the SIL Open Font License v1.1, for more details see OFL.txt
The project is led by Colophon, a type design foundry based in London and Los Angeles. To contribute ideas and feedback, see github.com/googlefonts/spacemono
We may accept contributions via GitHub pull requests, but require all authors to sign the Google Contributor License. Please see CONTRIBUTING.md for more details.
This is not an official Google product (experimental or otherwise,) it is just work that happens to be owned by Google.
