Alfold Semi-Mono

Alfold Semi-Mono is a serif type family that is stylistically positioned between Upright and Mono subfamilies. Alfold Semi-Mono features more balanced letterforms that are in stark juxtaposition to the more mono-infused spacing, thus creating a unique blend. Alfold Semi-Mono is inspired by the fonts found in the 1936 issue of the Alfold magazine from Subotica. It features more balanced letterforms set in stark contrast to mono-influenced spacing, creating a distinctive blend that defies easy classification. The subfamily shares the family's visual hallmarks: flat terminals, rectilinear serif connectors, and legible letterforms.

Alfold Semi-Mono is open to interpretation and experimentation, as it defies classification and doesn't adhere to the rules or stipulations that each genre imposes. Its character is particularly evident in longer bodies of text, where it has room to showcase its rhythm and personality, though it is equally well-suited to logos, wordmarks, and headline use. Alfold Semi-Mono feels at home in editorial design and bold web layouts built around strong typography.

The Semi-Mono subfamily follows the same structure as the rest of the family: 9 styles, each with 560+ characters, plus a variable font. It includes a wide selection of OpenType features, including stylistic alternates, fractions, and case-sensitive forms, allowing designers to fine-tune it to their exact needs.
