Google Fonts · Steve Matteson · 2010
A metric-compatible monospaced workhorse designed for screen and coding use, with broad multilingual script support.
About
Cousine was built to be interchangeable with Courier New in terms of metrics, easing document compatibility across systems while offering superior screen rendering. Its support for Cyrillic and Greek makes it a practical choice for multilingual coding environments and technical documentation. Clean, unfussy, and reliable — it is not exciting, but it does the job well.
Classification
Cousine is a metric-compatible alternative to Courier, designed by Steve Matteson as part of the Chrome OS core fonts, with support for Cyrillic, Cyrillic Extended, and Greek scripts. It takes a cleaner, more neutral approach than traditional typewriter-style monospaced faces.
