A monoline slab-serif design with compact proportions and even, mechanical spacing. Strokes are sturdy and low-contrast, with rounded corners and slightly blunted terminals that create a soft, inked edge. The outlines show mild irregularity—subtle wobble, uneven inking, and occasional roughness—while maintaining consistent widths and a steady rhythm. Counters are fairly open for a typewriter style, and the figures follow the same sturdy, simplified construction for a cohesive texture in text.
Well suited to headlines and short passages where a typed, documentary feel is desirable—editorial callouts, posters, packaging, labels, and faux-vintage ephemera. It can also work for UI accents or captions when a utilitarian, analog note is needed, especially where consistent character widths help with alignment.
The overall tone feels practical and archival, evoking typed documents, carbon copies, and stamped paperwork. The gentle distress and softened edges add an analog, human touch that reads as lived-in rather than pristine, giving layouts a nostalgic, documentary character.
The design appears intended to recreate the look of mechanical typing with a lightly worn print impression—prioritizing uniform spacing and sturdy letterforms while introducing subtle imperfections for authenticity and warmth.
The texture becomes more noticeable at larger sizes, where the uneven edges and rounded slab endings read as intentional wear. In paragraphs, the consistent spacing produces a strong horizontal cadence, while the slightly irregular ink impression keeps the color from feeling overly sterile.
