A heavy, monospaced sans with geometric construction and squared-off, flat terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a sturdy texture and an even, mechanical rhythm in text. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) read as near-circular but slightly squarish in feel, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) are rigid and orthogonal. The lowercase uses single-storey forms (notably a and g) with simple joins and compact counters, keeping shapes clear at small sizes. Numerals are robust and straightforward, with open forms and strong vertical presence that match the capitals’ weight.
Well-suited to environments that benefit from strict character alignment and a durable, high-contrast-on-white presence: coding and terminal emulation, tabular data, UI labels, technical manuals, and system-like interfaces. It can also serve display roles where a retro technical voice is desired, such as packaging callouts, signage, and industrial branding accents.
The overall tone is pragmatic and workmanlike, evoking technical documentation, labeling, and mid-century computer/terminal aesthetics. Its dense, uniform rhythm feels authoritative and functional rather than decorative, with a retro-industrial edge that reads as confident and direct.
The design appears intended to deliver a clear, uniform monospaced voice with a solid, engineered feel—favoring consistent widths, simplified letterforms, and stable geometry for dependable scanning and alignment in functional typography.
Letterspacing appears fixed and even, yielding a strong grid-like cadence in running text. The design prioritizes clarity through simplified apertures and sturdy interior spaces, giving it dependable readability and a distinctly mechanical silhouette.
