A rounded, monoline sans with a clearly monospaced rhythm and compact, evenly set proportions. Strokes are slightly irregular and roughened at the edges, creating a hand-inked texture rather than a purely mechanical finish. Curves are soft and open, counters are generously rounded, and terminals tend to be blunt with occasional wobble that reads like print wear or marker pressure. Overall spacing is steady and grid-like, supporting consistent alignment in both all-caps and mixed-case settings.
Well-suited to contexts that benefit from fixed-width alignment, such as coding displays, tabular readouts, and UI labels. The textured, imperfect stroke edge also makes it a good choice for packaging, editorial pull quotes, and posters where a casual, analog feel is desired without sacrificing legibility.
The texture and gentle wobble give the face a warm, informal tone—part typewriter, part handmade. It feels approachable and slightly nostalgic, with a lo-fi, analog character that suggests notes, labels, or imperfect printing.
Likely designed to combine the practicality of monospaced spacing with a more human, tactile surface. The goal appears to be a readable everyday text face that evokes typewriter or stamped lettering while maintaining consistent metrics for structured layouts.
The capitals and lowercase share a consistent rounded construction, with simple, readable forms that remain clear in paragraph samples. Numerals follow the same soft, slightly uneven stroke behavior, reinforcing the cohesive, stamped/inked impression across the set.
