A heavy slab-serif with a slightly right-leaning, italicized stance and a steady, monospaced rhythm. Strokes show noticeable contrast, with thick verticals and firmer slab terminals that read as bracketed and blunt rather than hairline-sharp. Letterforms are compact with sturdy curves, tight apertures, and squared-off details that give the shapes a dense, inked-in presence. The numerals and capitals maintain consistent width and weight, producing an even, mechanical spacing in text while still feeling distinctly serifed and punchy.
Works well for posters, labels, and branding that want a typewriter-inspired slab look with high impact. In editorial layouts it suits pull quotes, headings, and short blocks where the dense color reads as intentional. It can also fit technical or retro-computing themed material where a fixed-width feel is desirable, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is utilitarian and assertive, evoking typewriter and industrial printing while adding a bold, editorial bite. It feels practical and no-nonsense, with a slightly rough, workmanlike confidence that suits emphatic copy and retro-technical styling.
Likely designed to blend a typewriter-like fixed-width structure with bold slab-serif authority and a touch of italic momentum. The goal appears to be strong presence and consistent rhythm, delivering a rugged, print-forward voice that remains structured and legible.
The italic slant is subtle but consistent across cases, helping long lines feel a bit more dynamic without losing the fixed-width cadence. Slab terminals and strong joins create a dark typographic color, so it tends to dominate the page and benefits from generous leading or short text runs.
