The old posters and signs in the traditional <em>Montserrat</em> neighborhood of Buenos Aires inspired Julieta to design this typeface and rescue the beauty of urban typography that emerged in the first half of the twentieth century.
|
|
As urban development changes that place, it will never return to its original form and loses forever the designs that are so special and unique.
|
|
The letters that inspired this project have work, dedication, care, color, contrast, light and life, day and night!
|
|
These are the types that make the city look so beautiful.
|
|
The Montserrat Project began with the idea to rescue what is in Montserrat and set it free under a libre license, the SIL Open Font License.

This is the Subrayada family, a sister to the <a href="http://fonts.google.com/specimen/Montserrat">normal</a> and <a href="http://fonts.google.com/specimen/Montserrat+Alternates">Alternates</a> families.
|
|
Many of the letterforms are special in the Alternates family, while 'Subrayada' means 'Underlined' in Spanish and celebrates a special style of underline that is integrated into the letterforms found in the <em>Montserrat</em> neighborhood.
