A slanted slab-serif design with sturdy, square-ended serifs and a broad, even rhythm. Strokes stay largely uniform, with minimal modulation, giving the letters a firm, mechanical consistency. The forms are wide and open, with generous counters and clear apertures, while terminals and joins remain crisp and cleanly cut. Overall spacing and character widths are highly regular, contributing to a disciplined, measured texture in lines of text.
Works well where a typewriter or documentation aesthetic is desired, such as editorial sidebars, technical notes, code-adjacent labeling, and interface text that benefits from predictable rhythm. The wide proportions and sturdy serifs help it hold up in smaller sizes for captions and annotations, while the slanted stance can provide emphasis in pull quotes or highlighted passages.
The tone feels practical and workmanlike, with a distinctly typewriter-like, archival character. Its italic slant adds forward motion without becoming expressive or calligraphic, keeping the voice straightforward and functional. The overall impression is classic and slightly retro, suited to documents and systems that value clarity and consistency.
Likely intended to blend the dependability of slab serifs with the disciplined regularity of fixed-width typography, offering an italic voice that still feels engineered and consistent. The design prioritizes even color, clear internal spaces, and repeatable spacing for practical, text-forward use.
Uppercase shapes read strong and sign-like due to the broad proportions and prominent slabs, while lowercase maintains legibility through open bowls and uncomplicated construction. Figures follow the same steady, no-nonsense geometry, matching the text color closely in running settings.
