A monospaced serif with stout, ink-heavy letterforms and softly blunted terminals that feel slightly swollen, as if printed with a well-used ribbon. Strokes show modest contrast and a gentle, calligraphic modulation, with rounded joins and occasional bulb-like serifs that create a lively, imperfect rhythm. Counters are compact and openings can be narrow, giving the text a dark, dense color, while maintaining clear, upright structure and consistent set-widths across glyphs. Numerals and capitals follow the same sturdy, slightly wavy silhouette, reinforcing the mechanical, imprinted texture.
Well-suited for display settings where a retro, printed-from-a-machine voice is desired—posters, book covers, album art, packaging, menus, and themed editorial callouts. It can also work for short bursts of body copy when a dense, textured typewriter flavor is part of the art direction, especially in monochrome or high-contrast layouts.
The overall tone suggests vintage machinery and analog printing—warm, imperfect, and characterful rather than pristine. It reads as nostalgic and slightly eccentric, with a handmade edge that evokes old documents, labels, and well-worn correspondence.
The design appears intended to reinterpret typewriter conventions with more expressive, inked serifs and a subtly worn impression, balancing legibility with a strong analog personality. Its consistent spacing supports the monospaced look while the softened, irregular contours deliver a deliberately imperfect print aesthetic.
In longer text, the heavy texture and compact counters can make the page feel bold and saturated; the distinctive serifs and uneven ink-like edges become a prominent stylistic feature. The lowercase shows playful, varied shapes (notably in bowls and tails), which adds personality and helps avoid a strictly geometric typewriter feel.
