A monospaced serif design with sturdy, straight stems and bracketed, slab-like terminals. The outlines are intentionally irregular, with subtle waviness and chipped edges that mimic ink spread, paper texture, and worn type. Counters are compact and slightly uneven, and joins show occasional bulges that create a stamped, mechanical rhythm. Overall proportions stay consistent across the set, keeping the typing grid feel while letting the rough contour add character.
Well-suited to titles and short-to-medium text where a vintage, typed impression is desirable—film/theatre props, retro-themed posters, zines, and editorial pull quotes. It can also add authenticity to labels or packaging that aims for an archival or industrial tone, especially when paired with simple layouts that let the texture speak.
The font evokes an analog, archival mood—like an old office typewriter or a well-used rubber stamp. Its roughened edges and uneven inking lend a tactile, documentary tone that feels gritty, lived-in, and slightly rebellious rather than polished.
The design appears intended to reproduce the feel of mechanical typing with real-world imperfections—uneven pressure, ink bleed, and worn metal—while remaining structured enough to keep the strict cadence of fixed character widths.
The distressed contour is consistent across letters and numerals, giving long passages a lightly vibrating texture. Uppercase forms read solid and poster-like, while lowercase retains a compact, workmanlike cadence; the overall color on the page is dark and assertive due to the heavy inking effect.
