A monospaced slab-serif with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and generously rounded corners throughout. The serifs are bold and blocky but softened at the edges, giving a cushioned, approachable feel while keeping a strong horizontal/vertical structure. Curves are broad and open, counters are ample, and the overall letterfit is even and mechanical, producing a consistent texture in lines of text. Figures and capitals share the same solid, simplified construction with minimal modulation and clean joins.
Well-suited to settings where consistent character widths matter, such as coding environments, command-line displays, tables, and data-heavy layouts. It also works effectively for UI labels, signage-style headings, and short paragraphs where a typewriter flavor with softer edges is desired.
The design balances a classic typewriter/terminal impression with a noticeably friendly softness. Its tone feels practical and straightforward, with a retro-office character that reads as reliable rather than formal or delicate.
Likely intended to modernize the familiar monospaced slab-serif formula by rounding terminals and corners for comfort, while preserving the disciplined rhythm and clear structure needed for dense, aligned text.
Distinctive slab terminals and rounded finishing details create strong silhouette clarity at small sizes while preventing the face from feeling harsh. The uniform spacing emphasizes alignment and tabular order, making repeated characters and numeric strings look particularly tidy.
