DM Mono

Designed by Colophon Foundry

About

DM Mono is a three weight, three style family designed for DeepMind. DM Mono was loosely based off of DM Sans, with a reduction in contrast and less geometric proportions.

The type design and font development was commissioned from Colophon Foundry, with Creative Direction from the DeepMind team.

Choosing type

When you have some text, how can you choose a typeface? Many people—professional designers included—go through an app’s font menu until we find one we like. But the aim of this Google Fonts Knowledge module is to show that there are many considerations that can improve our type choices. By setting some useful constraints to aid our type selection, we can also develop a critical eye for analyzing type along the way.
