A monoline, slab-like typewriter design with chunky terminals and softly rounded corners, rendered with deliberate irregularity. Strokes show subtle wobble and uneven edges that mimic ink spread and mechanical wear, creating a lightly distressed texture without breaking letterforms. Proportions are compact and sturdy, with wide counters and simple, functional shapes; the alphabet maintains consistent rhythm and alignment across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for short to medium text where character and atmosphere matter: posters, packaging, labels, zines, and editorial pull quotes. It also works well for film/theatre props, faux documents, and UI moments that need a typed, archival feel; for long passages, the texture may be more effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is analog and workmanlike, evoking paperwork, stamped labels, and mid-century typing. Its worn texture adds a gritty, lived-in character that feels archival and documentary rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to capture the look of typed output with the human and mechanical imperfections of inked impressions—slightly rough edges, softened corners, and an intentionally imperfect rhythm—while keeping forms clear and dependable.
The lowercase has a straightforward, readable construction with a single-storey “a” and compact bowls; numerals are similarly sturdy and slightly quirky, reinforcing the mechanical, imperfect impression. The distressed edges are consistent across the set, so the texture reads as an intentional style rather than random damage.
