A monospaced slab-serif design with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and compact, squared-off proportions. Serifs are blunt and slightly rounded, giving the forms a softened, inked impression rather than crisp geometry. Curves are broad and simple, counters are open, and joins stay straightforward, producing an even horizontal rhythm typical of fixed-width lettering. Overall spacing is consistent and utilitarian, with small irregularities in edge behavior that read like lightly worn impressions.
Well-suited to long-form text where a fixed-width rhythm is desirable, such as scripts, drafts, technical notes, tables, and form-like layouts. It also works effectively for labels, captions, and packaging or poster copy that benefits from a typed, documentary voice without heavy distress.
The font conveys a practical, archival tone—suggesting typed documents, records, and workshop notes. Its softened terminals and subtly imperfect edges add a human, analog feel while remaining restrained and legible, balancing nostalgia with straightforward clarity.
The design appears intended to recreate the steady cadence of mechanical typing with a slightly softened imprint, prioritizing consistent spacing, clarity, and an understated vintage texture over decorative flourish.
Uppercase forms are compact and sturdy, while lowercase maintains clear differentiation in key shapes (such as a single-storey ‘a’ and a simple, open ‘g’), reinforcing a functional, typed-text character. Numerals match the same blunt slab treatment and align comfortably with the text color for continuous reading.
