Space Mono is a quirky and cute “fixed width” or “monospaced font”. Space mono is structured upon a geometric foundation and flourished with grotesque details. These characteristics give it a nostalgic charm that’s reminiscent of the 1960’s retro futurism in cheesy sci-fi media. Look closely at this font and it becomes apparent many glyphs lean into a seemingly mismatched composition. Notably descenders tend to follow a condensed square shape and there are many clipped strokes. Leaning into this “awkwardness” gives space mono its nerdy charm.

“A monospace writ large, as it is in our collective mind’s eye: a few words projected on a large display, rendered in overly simplified, appealingly vague pieces of warning or counsel that only a trained operator understands, all witnessed via screen-within-imaginary-screen, aboard interplanetary vessels and hovering automobiles.”
