A monospaced, typewriter-like serif with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and compact proportions. Terminals are blunt and slightly flared, with small slabby feet and occasional ink-spread irregularities that give strokes a pressed, imperfect edge. Counters are open and round, and the overall rhythm is even and mechanical, maintaining consistent character widths and a steady baseline presence across letters and numerals.
Well-suited to designs that benefit from a typewritten, document-style tone—such as screenplay layouts, editorial pull quotes, book covers, and posters. It also works effectively in packaging, stamps, and branding where an analog, utilitarian texture can add character without sacrificing readability at moderate sizes.
The face feels archival and workmanlike, evoking paperwork, labels, and old correspondence. Its subtly rough edges and inky texture add a tactile, analog quality that reads as authentic and slightly gritty rather than polished.
The design appears intended to recreate the look of mechanical typing with a touch of real-world wear—prioritizing consistent spacing, straightforward forms, and a lightly distressed imprint. The goal is a dependable, text-capable monospaced voice that brings period flavor and tactile presence to modern layouts.
Uppercase forms appear strong and steady with modest serifs, while lowercase maintains clear differentiation (notably in a, g, and y) that supports legibility in continuous text. Numerals match the same monospaced cadence and carry the same stamped, slightly worn impression, reinforcing a cohesive, document-oriented voice.
