Space Mono by Colophon
======================

Space Mono is an original monospace display typeface family designed by Colophon Foundry for Google Design.

It supports a Latin Extended glyph set, enabling typesetting for English and other Western European languages. 

Developed explicitly for use in headline and display typography, the letterforms infuse a geometric slab core with novel over-rationalized forms.
