In 2004, Andreu Balius and Alex Trochut – grandson of the creator of this modular system – designed a digital version of the system for Typerepublic type foundry, taking into account the original material of Joan Trochut.” It was joined in 2020 by the Centenary Collection (Balius and Ricard Garcia) of 12 ready-made styles based on Trochut’s work.
