A condensed slab-serif with largely monoline strokes and compact proportions. Terminals are squared and supported by blunt, rectangular serifs, while many joins and corners are gently rounded, giving the outlines a slightly softened, engineered feel. Counters are relatively tight and vertical stems dominate, producing an even, steady texture in text. The numerals and capitals keep a straightforward, grid-like construction, and the overall rhythm stays consistent across the alphabet.
Well-suited to technical documentation, UI labels, tables, and other information-dense settings where a compact footprint is helpful. It also works for retro-inflected posters, packaging callouts, and signage where a typewriter/industrial tone supports the message.
The face evokes typewriter and drafting-room sensibilities—practical, orderly, and a bit nostalgic. Its restrained geometry and sturdy slab details convey clarity and dependability rather than elegance, with a subtle industrial character that feels familiar and workmanlike.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, highly legible slab-serif voice with a utilitarian, typewriter-adjacent flavor. Its consistent stroke weight and blunt serif structure prioritize clarity and repeatable rhythm for structured, text-heavy applications.
In running text, the condensed set and uniform stroke weight create a compact, efficient color, while the squared serifs help maintain letter definition at smaller sizes. The punctuation and forms read cleanly, with a modestly mechanical cadence that suits structured layouts.
