A monospaced serif design with blunt slab-like terminals and a visibly worn, inked texture along the contours. Strokes are low-contrast and generally stout, with slightly irregular edges that mimic mechanical imprinting and minor ink spread. Counters are open and robust, and the overall rhythm is steady and evenly spaced, giving lines a disciplined, gridlike cadence. The letterforms lean on simple, sturdy geometry—rounds are slightly squarish, curves are firm rather than delicate, and joins stay compact to preserve clarity at small sizes.
Well-suited for designs that need a typewritten or archival voice—prop documents, zines, book and magazine features, captions, and pull quotes. It also works effectively on labels, badges, and posters where the worn imprint can add character without sacrificing readability.
The font conveys a vintage, utilitarian tone—like stamped labels, old correspondence, or archival documents. Its distressed edges add grit and immediacy, suggesting authenticity and a tactile, analog feel rather than polished digital neutrality.
The design appears intended to recreate the feel of a mechanical typing or stamping process, emphasizing consistent spacing and sturdy slabs while introducing controlled roughness to simulate age, wear, or ink transfer.
The distressed treatment is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive “imprinted” look without breaking legibility. Uppercase forms read bold and poster-ready, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike texture that keeps paragraphs lively.
