A heavy, monoline slab-serif design with consistently wide set characters and rounded, blunted terminals. Strokes show slight irregularity and soft edges that suggest ink spread or lightly distressed printing rather than crisp digital outlines. The serifs are compact and sturdy, and many joins and curves feel slightly swollen, creating a dense, dark texture. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, and the overall rhythm is steady and evenly spaced, producing a distinctly mechanical, keyed-in look.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a vintage, mechanical voice is desired—posters, pull quotes, packaging, labels, and themed editorial layouts. It is particularly effective when you want strong presence and even spacing, and when slight roughness enhances the message.
The face conveys a retro, utilitarian tone with a friendly roughness—like well-used hardware and printed receipts. Its softened edges and subtle wobble add a human, imperfect character that feels approachable and slightly playful rather than strictly formal.
The design appears intended to evoke classic typewritten output with a heavier, more graphic footprint and a gently worn print feel. It prioritizes consistent character width and strong silhouettes to deliver an unmistakable stamped/typed impression in display and branding contexts.
Caps and lowercase share a cohesive, typewritten construction with sturdy slab features and rounded corners throughout. The numerals match the same heavy presence and maintain a consistent footprint, reinforcing a uniform, grid-friendly texture in lines of text.
