A monospaced, slanted serif design with chunky, softly bracketed serifs and rounded terminals. Strokes show gentle, uneven swelling and slightly wavy edges that evoke ink spread or lightly worn type, giving the forms an organic, printed texture while remaining consistent cell-to-cell. Counters are fairly open and the overall silhouette is broad, with robust capitals and compact, sturdy lowercase shapes that keep a steady typewriter rhythm.
Works well where a typewritten voice is desired but with extra warmth and personality: quotes, epigraphs, short editorial blocks, menus, and retro-styled posters or title cards. The strong serifs and inky texture also suit branding accents and packaging where a crafted, vintage impression is beneficial.
The font conveys a nostalgic, hands-on feel—like an old ribboned machine or well-used letterpress—tempered by friendly irregularities. Its slant and soft corners add a conversational tone, making it feel more human and characterful than a strictly mechanical mono.
Designed to capture the recognizable cadence of monospaced typing while introducing softer, inked contours for a more expressive, lived-in look. The goal appears to be readability with character—mechanical structure enriched by subtle irregularity.
Numerals and punctuation follow the same softened, slightly irregular treatment, helping paragraphs read with a cohesive, tactile texture. The slant is consistent across the set, and the heavier serifs create strong baseline presence that reads as bold and old-fashioned without becoming harsh.
