A monospaced slab-serif design with wide set proportions and sturdy, lightly rounded terminals. Strokes show modest contrast with subtly flared or bracketed slab serifs and occasional ink-like bulges that give the outlines a gently uneven, printed feel. The lowercase has a single-storey a and g, compact bowls, and an overall steady rhythm typical of fixed-width construction; counters are open enough to stay clear in text despite the heavy, inky joins.
Well-suited to projects that benefit from a typewritten voice, such as retro-themed branding, editorial pull quotes, book or zine layouts, posters, and label-style packaging. The consistent fixed-width rhythm also supports simple tables, lists, and other alignment-driven typography where a mechanical cadence is desirable.
The font evokes mechanical imprint and archival paperwork—practical, slightly rugged, and familiar. Its softened corners and faintly irregular inking add a human, lived-in tone that reads as vintage and documentary rather than sleek or contemporary.
The design appears intended to reproduce the feel of classic office type with sturdy slab serifs and subtle ink spread, balancing legibility with an intentionally imperfect printed texture. Its wide, even spacing and robust forms suggest a focus on dependable readability while maintaining an unmistakably vintage, mechanical personality.
Numerals and capitals keep strong blocky silhouettes with pronounced slabs, while details like the angled leg on R and the curled descender on Q reinforce the typewriter-era character. The fixed-width spacing creates a consistent grid-like cadence that works well for aligned content.
