The Mono version is a little different from Sans family, where the letters have a straight shape in the top bottom. The idea was to make a classic mono typed version with different selection of letters.
The inspiration comes from some old documents and store signs from my great-grandfather's old gold listfactory from 1838. He delivered hits for many artists of that time, and various museums in Copenhagen. I priority increases to make a mixture of the classic letter with a modern lift. Seems it was fun to try to reproducesome of the old characters and make a new font. Uppercase “G” was the first letter of the startingpoint. G stands for in danish “Guldramme”, which means “Goldframe”. Arkibal is coming from an almost old danish tradional name "Arkibald", only without "d".
