About the family


Dymaxion Core Mono is an original monospaced typeface that originated from a larger self-initiated project, named Dymaxion after the coined portmanteau by R. Buckminster Fuller. This typeface conveys a raw and engineered aesthetic, while also evoking a strong sense of nostalgia, drawing from historical documents related to the inventor and architect. The primary inspiration for the typeface stems from the dymaxion concept, which emphasizes "maximum gain of advantage from minimal energy input." My initial goal was to explore whether a single variable font could mechanically stretch, compress, and more, while remaining as simple and efficient as possible, all while maintaining a unique character. Similar to how Trim Tab sought inspiration from nature, the relationship between the uppercase and lowercase letters is based on the golden ratio. The small caps were designed to fit between the uppercase and lowercase letters, allowing users to choose more conventional proportions. These small caps can be accessed in design program dropdown menus as the “Small Caps as Capitals” stylistic set.

About Typeseth Studio

Typeseth studio is the type design practice of Seth Haller. With a few years in the game, he has been digitizing and exploring letters from art and design history that are often over-looked for their ubiquitous nature. Sometimes he explores experimental display fonts that feel more puzzle-like and pushes letterforms to the edge of legibility to get a sense not just for their typographic, but also graphic, possibilities. Based in colorful Colorado, the practice is inspired by the type community made up of folks in the front range design scene, as well as vernacular letterforms found in the “wild.” Seth became interested in letters from a very young age when he noticed the beauty of his grandmother's handwriting. Since then, he has been nose down, exploring and connecting distinctive letterforms to individuals and brands for communications that uniquely belong to the people that use them and the respective worlds they serve.
