Matricia
Type-ø-tones · José Manuel Urós, Pera Ribalta
A dot matrix printer revival family by José Manuel Urós and Pera Ribalta, with each variant referencing specific printer models and hardware.
About
Three subfamilies draw directly from dot matrix printer aesthetics, with Matricia Uno, Matricia Uno Extended and Matricia Dos each named after real machine references including the Honeywell 9255L6 and escape code sequences. The single weight per variant suggests a narrow, functional design brief rooted in faithful hardware reproduction rather than typographic range. Suited to retro computing, lo-fi editorial or anything that wants to evoke the texture of early digital print.
Classification
Matricia is styled after dot matrix printer output, with subfamilies named after printer models and escape codes, placing it firmly in the display/bitmap-revival category.
