Trim Mono specimen from Letters from Sweden

A monospaced typeface by Göran Söderström that extends the stem-trimming technique associated with Knud V. Engelhardt's letterforms to every possible character.

About

Where typefaces like Skilt Gothic selectively trim diagonal stems as a stylistic device, Trim Mono applies the same principle indiscriminately across the entire character set, producing something noticeably eccentric. The family spans at least three weights from Light to Bold. Latin script coverage is broad, including extended characters for Nordic and Central European languages.

Classification

A monospaced typeface with a distinctive geometric character derived from systematically trimming stems and diagonals, placing it firmly in the geometric mono category.
