Punkt Mono is an experimental monospace font that integrates traditional letterforms with Braille characters,combining tactile and visual communication for improved accessibility. Each character is aligned with its Braille equivalent within the consistent spacing of the monospaced design,enabling a seamless mix of printed and embossed formats. This approach allows for hybrid products that reduce paper usage and production costs while promoting inclusivity.
