+<p>The old posters and signs in the traditional neighborhood of Buenos Aires
+called Montserrat inspired me to design a typeface that rescues the beauty of
+urban typography from the first half of the twentieth century. The goal is to
+rescue what is in Montserrat and set it free, under a free, libre and open
+source license, the SIL Open Font License.</p>

+<p>As urban development changes this place, it will never return to its
+original form and loses forever the designs that are so special and unique. To
+draw the letters, I rely on examples of lettering in the urban space. Each

+canopies are irretrievable when they are replaced.</p>

+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.</p>
