ABC Diatype is a warm yet sharp grotesque, ideal for text and reading on screen. It began its life during Fabian Harb’s student days, as an eager exploration of the Swiss Neo-grotesque genre; its name harks back to the clunky, pre-digital typesetting machines that informed its shapes.

In 2018, Dinamo’s long-standing family member Elias Hanzer completed ABC Diatype by extending the single weight Upright and Italic design to a family with Thin, Light, Regular, Medium, and Bold, with corresponding Monospace and Italics. A Schoolbook Stylistic Set is also available, which includes a single story a, a tombstone-style t, and simplified numbers that rise diagonally.
