A slab-serif, typewriter-like design with sturdy verticals and compact, mechanical proportions. The letterforms show intentionally roughened outlines and uneven stroke edges, with occasional blotting and small voids that mimic worn type, dry ink, or rough printing. Serifs are blunt and squared, terminals are firm, and curves are slightly flattened, creating a rigid rhythm softened by the distressed texture. Spacing feels typewriter-regular in flow while individual shapes retain subtle, irregular contour variation.
Works well for headlines, short paragraphs, and display settings where an aged, printed authenticity is desired—such as posters, editorial pull quotes, book covers, and film/scene props. It’s especially effective when paired with paper textures or monochrome layouts that emphasize its rough ink character.
The overall tone reads utilitarian and archival, like text pulled from an old document, field notes, or a repeatedly photocopied page. Its distressed finish adds grit and immediacy, lending a tactile, imperfect character that feels analog and weathered.
Likely intended to evoke classic typewriter typography with a deliberately degraded print surface, providing instant atmosphere without losing the disciplined structure of a monospaced-era model. The goal appears to be readable text that still carries strong material presence and narrative texture.
The distressed treatment is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, keeping the texture cohesive in continuous text. The texture becomes more prominent at larger sizes, while at smaller sizes it can merge into a darker, grainier color.
