Background

Motor Normal and Motor Stencil are strongly grided, monolined and monospaced fonts with technical charm. With its monotone and reliable rhythm it tends towards condensed proportions reminding of old poster fonts. Its origins lie in the typeface Mono45 Headline and the manually stamped tickets found at the University-hospital in Zurich.

The Motor Collection includes two different cuts
– Motor Normal
– Motor Stencil
