A delicate slab-serif design with generous sidebearings and a steady, even rhythm. Stems are slender and consistent, with softly rounded, bracketed slab serifs that give the outlines a gentle, engineered feel rather than sharp, chiseled edges. Curves are clean and open—particularly in C, G, O, and the lowercase bowls—while joins remain restrained and tidy. Numerals are simple and legible, with rounded terminals and minimal contrast that keeps texture even across lines of text.
Well-suited to code-like settings, technical documentation, and data-adjacent layouts where consistent spacing and clarity matter. It also works for editorial sidebars, captions, and UI typography when a light, orderly slab-serif voice is desired.
The overall tone reads as typewriter-adjacent and quietly academic: orderly, methodical, and a bit nostalgic. Its light touch and softened slab details keep it from feeling harsh, lending a friendly, editorial calm even in dense settings.
Likely intended to blend the utility of fixed-width typography with a more refined slab-serif silhouette. The design aims for high legibility and consistent texture, while the rounded, bracketed serifs add approachability and a lightly vintage editorial character.
In text, the consistent character widths and regular spacing create a disciplined grid-like color, while the rounded slab serifs prevent the page from feeling overly mechanical. The forms stay straightforward and readable, with a subtle handmade warmth coming through in the rounded terminals and gentle bracket transitions.
