A monospaced companion to LL Riforma by Zürich studio NORM, built on geometric construction with a full set of Unicode box-drawing characters.
About
Designed by NORM and released by Lineto in 2024 to mark the studio's 25th anniversary, the typeface carries forward the geometric construction and large x-height of LL Riforma into a fixed-width format. Serifs and crossbars are confidently prolonged to fill the monospace grid, while the original sharpness softens slightly to accommodate the constraints of equal character widths. The family includes the full Unicode set of box-drawing characters and block elements, reviving a semigraphic tradition from early digital typography.
Classification
A monospaced companion to the geometric sans-serif LL Riforma, with fixed-width construction derived from geometric letter forms and a large x-height. Classified as mono given the unified character width and inclusion of Unicode box-drawing characters.
