About

Montserrat is a sleek, elegant, modern font that I absolutely love. It has an Achilles' heel, however: the capital G looks absolutely hideous.

While we recognize the artistic choices that the Montserrat designers had to make, we believe that they made a mistake by denying their capital G a horizontal bar. Before now, we would go to great lengths to avoid use of the capital G where we used Montserrat, because we just do not appreciate how it looks. This process being less than ideal, we were determined to change the way the G looks.

This is the form of the uppercase G in Gontserrat. It is the only change we made to Montserrat: that way, we can improve the sole weakness of the font without compromising any of its other aspects. Gontserrat may not be the OG, but it is certainly a G!
