A monospaced slab-serif design with sturdy, wide proportions and gently rounded terminals that soften the otherwise mechanical structure. Strokes are largely uniform with minimal contrast, and the serifs read as blunt, typebar-like slabs with slightly bulbous ends. Curves are open and simplified, counters are generous, and the overall rhythm is even and grid-friendly, keeping texture consistent across lines. Details like the angled leg on the R, the compact crossbars, and the straightforward numerals reinforce a pragmatic, print-oriented feel.
Well-suited to settings where fixed spacing and predictable alignment matter, such as code samples, terminals, scripts, and tabular data. It also works effectively for labels, packaging callouts, and editorial sidebars where a typewritten voice is desired at text sizes.
The tone is classic and functional, evoking typed documents, workshop labels, and archival ephemera. Its slightly softened edges add a friendly, human touch without losing the disciplined, no-nonsense cadence associated with mechanical lettering.
The design appears intended to capture the practical clarity of typewritten output while presenting a clean, consistent texture for modern composition. Its wide stance and softened slab terminals aim to feel mechanical yet approachable, supporting both utilitarian layout tasks and nostalgic typographic atmospheres.
The uniform character widths create a deliberate, steady cadence that emphasizes alignment and tabular order. The design balances crisp, straight-sided slabs with rounded joins, producing a robust texture that remains readable while still feeling distinctly “typed.”
