Electrica specimen from Scannerlicker

A contemporary monospaced family of 16 styles that takes cues from typewriter faces, particularly the IBM Selectric, without committing to strict revival.

About

Electrica spans four weights with matching italics, drawing visual inspiration from classic typewriter typefaces whilst operating as an original design in its own right. The IBM Selectric is its most prominent reference point, though the family is shaped for modern media and screen use. It sits comfortably between period nostalgia and functional contemporary typography.

Classification

A contemporary monospaced typeface drawing on typewriter aesthetics, particularly the IBM Selectric, while remaining an original design rather than a direct revival.
