A slab-serif text face with a typewriter-like skeleton and deliberately roughened, irregular contours. Strokes are sturdy and low-contrast, with soft, blobby terminals and uneven edges that suggest ink spread or worn printing. Counters are generally open but slightly pinched and eroded in places, and curves show subtle wobble rather than geometric precision. Spacing feels natural and readable in paragraphs, while the distressed texture creates a lively, imperfect rhythm across lines.
Works well where you want readable text with a strong vintage/printed-material feel: posters, cover art, labels and packaging, editorial pull quotes, and title cards. It can handle short paragraphs, but the heavy texture is most impactful at medium-to-large sizes where the distress remains crisp and intentional.
The font conveys an analog, tactile tone—evoking battered documents, stamped labels, and aging ephemera. Its rough ink character reads as utilitarian and authentic rather than polished, adding grit and urgency to otherwise familiar typewriter forms.
The design appears intended to merge a familiar typewriter slab-serif structure with a controlled distressed overlay, producing a dependable text silhouette that still feels weathered and tactile. The goal is likely to add instant age, grit, and analog character without sacrificing basic readability.
Distress is applied consistently across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, so the texture becomes part of the color of the text rather than a one-off effect. The numerals and key punctuation marks retain clear silhouettes, but fine details are intentionally softened by the worn edges.
