From the Foundry:
“Following the dual release of the Centra No. 1 and Centra No. 2 in 2017, Josh Finklea expands the sans serif series with Centra Mono. The typeface is an amalgamation of its geometric sans relatives, constrained but not hindered by a fixed-width system.
Monospaced typefaces tend to reference either the analog and material quirks of a typewriter, or the calculated efficiency of a programming environment. Centra Mono is neither limited by technology or context, but takes its place as a contemporary response to monospace typography. Available in 4 weights in both roman and italic, the typeface is part of an established conversation between Centra’s humanistic warmth and modernist rationale, but operates as its own fine-tuned instrument.”
