Rike (Semi) Mono was drawn to be used in a publication about artists in the GDR. The design is based on a few letters which were typed on the back of photographs from the 1960/70s.

This low-contrast monospace typeface doesn’t deny its roots and its relationship to the Bullit typeface of the Italian typewriter manufacturer Olivetti, but has developed its own personality: Rike Mono offers bold and classical typewriter letters in a contemporary design acompanied by old style and semi mono stylistic sets.
