A monospaced, typewriter-like design with sturdy, blunt letterforms and visibly irregular edges. Strokes are heavy and low-contrast, with rounded, softened corners and occasional nicks that create a worn, inked impression. Proportions are wide and steady, with compact counters and a consistent rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The overall texture reads as printed rather than digitally precise, giving lines of text a dark, mottled typographic color.
Works well for short-to-medium passages where a typewritten voice is desired, such as posters, pull quotes, book covers, and editorial display. The worn texture also suits packaging, labels, and on-screen props that need an authentic printed or stamped look.
The font conveys an analog, archival feel—part office machinery, part stamped ephemera. Its roughened outlines add a slightly ominous, investigative tone that can read as gritty, retro, or documentary depending on context.
Designed to evoke monospaced mechanical typing with an intentionally imperfect print texture, trading crisp precision for character and atmosphere. The consistent spacing and sturdy silhouettes aim for immediate legibility while adding a distressed, analog patina.
At text sizes the distressed contour becomes a defining texture, while at larger sizes the uneven edge detail is more apparent and decorative. The numerals match the same sturdy, slightly battered construction, reinforcing the utilitarian, machine-made character.
