Ivar Mono specimen from Letters from Sweden

A monospaced serif by Göran Söderström, spun off from the Ivar family with contrast pitched between its text and headline optical sizes.

About

Derived from Göran Söderström's Ivar typeface, this monospaced variant was originally designed for GRÖN and arrives in five weights from Light to Black, with a variable font included in the Complete package. The optical sizing sits deliberately between Ivar Text and Ivar Headline, giving it enough contrast to feel elegant while remaining workable at body text sizes. Its extended Latin character set covers a wide range of European languages, and the inclusion of fractions, super- and subscripts, and currency symbols makes it well suited to technical and editorial work alike.

Classification

A monospaced serif explicitly described as such by the foundry, derived from the Ivar serif family with optical sizing balanced between text and display contrast.
