A monospaced serif face with gently bracketed serifs, rounded terminals, and subtly irregular contours that mimic ink spread and mechanical wear. Strokes stay largely even in thickness, while small kinks and soft corners add a lived-in texture without breaking legibility. Proportions feel open and slightly roomy within the fixed character widths, with simple, sturdy forms in both cases and uncomplicated numerals that read clearly at text sizes.
This font suits long-form reading where a typewritten flavor is desired, such as editorial pages, novels, scripts, and essays. It also works well for packaging copy, captions, and labels when you want a mechanical-but-warm presence that remains clear in continuous text.
The overall tone is distinctly analog and nostalgic, evoking typed pages and archival documents. Its mild roughness and slightly uneven rhythm add a human, tactile quality—more charming than gritty—making the voice feel literary and personable rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to capture the feel of classic typewritten output—structured, repeatable spacing paired with slight physical imperfections. It aims for comfortable readability while preserving the character and texture associated with printed documents and correspondence.
Uppercase shapes keep a classic serif structure, while the lowercase introduces a friendly, handwritten-like looseness in bowls and joins. The texture is consistent across letters and figures, creating a cohesive “typed” color in paragraphs, and the punctuation and dots appear slightly softened, reinforcing the impression of impact and ink on paper.
