A tall, condensed serif with sturdy slab-like serifs and gently rounded corners that soften the overall silhouette. Strokes stay largely even in weight, producing a crisp, monoline rhythm with clean joins and restrained detailing. Serifs are short and blocky with subtle bracketing, and many terminals feel slightly bulbous or rounded, giving the face a friendly mechanical finish. Counters are generally open and the narrow set creates a tight, vertical texture while remaining legible in continuous text.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book and magazine work, and packaging that wants a vintage or typewriter-coded voice without roughness. Its condensed proportions make it practical for headlines, pull quotes, captions, and space-constrained layouts where a strong vertical texture is desirable.
The font reads as typewriter-adjacent and retro without feeling distressed, combining a utilitarian backbone with a mildly playful, personable tone. Its narrow, upright stance and rounded slab finishing evoke editorial clarity, archival documents, and classic printed matter.
Likely designed to deliver a condensed serif with a typewriter-inspired presence—efficient, readable, and characterful—while using rounded slab terminals to keep the tone approachable and distinctive in display and text settings.
The alphabet shows consistent vertical stress and compact sidebearings, with distinctive, slightly quirky curves in letters like S, G, and the numerals. The overall color on the page is even and controlled, and the punctuation and figures match the same compact, sturdy logic.
