Mönch Neue is a luxury serif family in 4 styles and 7 weights, built for editorial work, brand identity, and typographic systems that need historical depth without visual noise. Sharp terminals, restless curves, disciplined spacing — and a fourth style called Rebellion that breaks the classical frame entirely.
Mönch Neue draws from two early twentieth-century designs that approached the same cultural moment from opposite directions. Peter Behrens’ Behrens Antiqua (1907) carries the energy of early modernism — constructed forms, sculptural terminals, proportions that shouldn’t work but do. Anton Durstmüller’s Mönch Antiqua (1912) stays composed: calmer rhythm, classical discipline, a typeface comfortable with book typography traditions.
The question behind Mönch Neue was simple: what happens if you force these two voices into conversation? Not reconstruction. Not revival in the usual sense. A synthesis — studying both, redrawing both, translating structural ideas from early twentieth-century design into something that functions now.
The Rebellion style takes that synthesis further. Where the Roman, Oblique, and Italic maintain classical structure, Rebellion introduces expressive alternates and rule-breaking details — the same historical DNA, different attitude. All seven weights. All four styles. 28 fonts total.
OpenType features include ligatures, proportional and tabular figures, oldstyle figures, slashed zero, and extended European language support.
History isn’t something you photocopy. It’s something you argue with.

Mönch Neue Script is the hand behind the press.
Where Roman sets the structure, and Italic refines it, Script remembers where letters came from — drawn, continuous, alive. Organic curves, flowing connections, and the kind of warmth that classical serifs deliberately left behind.
Built from the same historical DNA as the rest of the family, Script carries the Mönch Neue character into territory where typography becomes gesture. It works alongside Roman and Italic when editorial elegance needs a human touch — and stands alone when the brief calls for something warmer than a serif but more considered than a casual script.
Seven weights. Packaging, editorial, digital, identity — wherever the italic isn’t quite enough.
Letters that remember the pen.
Mönch Neue Rebellion breaks the rules it just established.
Where Roman shows restraint, Rebellion flaunts flourish. Art Nouveau curves, swash terminals, and unapologetic decorative energy—designed for fashion editorials, gallery identity, and brands that refuse to whisper.
Available across all seven weights with Italic variants, Rebellion blends structure with swagger, grace with attitude. Use it when classical isn’t enough and ordinary won’t cut it. Extended European Latin support and OpenType features throughout.
Classical training. Rebellious attitude.
