A sturdy slab-serif with compact, blocky letterforms and square-ended strokes. Serifs are prominent and largely rectangular, with slight bracketing that smooths joins into stems. Curves are rounded but disciplined, keeping a firm, mechanical rhythm; counters stay fairly open and the overall color reads even in text. The lowercase leans toward a typewriter-like construction with single-storey forms (notably the g) and a straightforward, workmanlike modulation. Figures are clear and robust, with a practical, tabular-feeling presence even when set proportionally.
Works well for extended reading in editorial settings where a firm, grounded texture is desired, as well as manuals, specifications, and instructional material. The sturdy slabs and straightforward forms also suit packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from an industrial, typewriter-adjacent voice.
The tone feels functional and no-nonsense, evoking typewritten documents, editorial markup, and workshop labeling. Its slab structure adds a confident, archival character—serious and slightly retro—without becoming ornate.
Likely designed to capture the dependable clarity of slab-serif and typewriter traditions while maintaining a clean, contemporary regularity for modern text composition.
Spacing and proportions favor steady readability and a consistent horizontal cadence, with squared shoulders and terminals reinforcing a mechanical, engineered impression. The serif treatment helps anchor lines, making long passages feel stable and grounded.
