A slanted, monospaced serif with chunky, blunt terminals and softly rounded corners. Strokes are low-contrast and slightly wobbly, with irregular contours and ink-like swell/shrink that suggests rough printing or a worn ribbon. The letterforms are wide-set with generous internal spaces and a steady, typewriter-like rhythm, while the edges show consistent distressing that keeps the texture even across the set.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a vintage, printed-on-paper character is desired—such as posters, headlines, packaging labels, café menus, book covers, and editorial callouts. The monospaced spacing also suits code-like layouts, forms, or caption styles when a rougher, more human texture is appropriate.
The overall tone is informal and tactile, mixing a utilitarian typewriter feel with a handmade, weathered texture. It reads as approachable and analog—suggesting notes, field journals, or vintage ephemera rather than polished corporate typography.
The design appears intended to evoke a classic typewriter voice with intentional wear and printing imperfections, delivering a dependable monospaced structure while adding personality through distressed, inked contours.
The distress is integrated into the silhouettes rather than added as random speckling, so counters remain mostly open and recognizable. Numerals share the same soft, inked irregularity, keeping the texture consistent in text and display settings.
