A monospaced, typewriter-like design with softly rounded corners and visibly irregular stroke edges that suggest uneven inking or worn printing. Letterforms are built from simple, sturdy structures with low contrast and a consistent, steady rhythm across the set. Curves are slightly lumpy and counters are modestly open, while terminals often look blunted or pressed, creating a tactile, stamped feel. The overall texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving lines of text a cohesive, lightly distressed color.
Well-suited to designs that benefit from a rough typewriter texture, such as zines, flyers, posters, and music or event graphics. It can also work for short-form editorial display (headlines, pull quotes) and themed packaging or labels where an analog, worn impression is desirable. For longer text, its steady monospaced rhythm can be effective when the goal is atmosphere over pristine neutrality.
The font conveys an analog, archival tone—practical and utilitarian, but with a gritty, lived-in character. Its imperfect outlines read as human and mechanical at once, evoking typewritten notes, photocopies, and workshop labeling rather than polished editorial typography.
Likely designed to recreate the look of imperfect typewritten or stamped lettering, combining monospaced structure with a controlled distressed finish. The intention appears to be strong legibility at display and text sizes while maintaining a consistent, gritty texture across lines.
Distress appears as edge wobble and slight fill variation rather than dramatic breaks, so the face retains clear silhouettes while still producing a textured page tone. The monospaced spacing reinforces a measured, procedural cadence that pairs well with the rough print effect.
