A monoline, condensed serif design with a typewriter-like grid rhythm and deliberately irregular detailing. Strokes stay low-contrast but show frequent notches, spur-like cuts, and wedge terminals that create a chiseled silhouette. Curves are slightly squared and occasionally pinched, while verticals remain straight and firm; many glyphs feature small mid-stem nicks that read like mechanical wear or hand-cut interruptions. Overall spacing and proportions reinforce a rigid, utilitarian structure, contrasted by the quirky, inconsistent edge treatment.
Best suited to short display settings where the eccentric cuts and typewriter cadence can be a feature: posters, headlines, captions, zines, and themed packaging or labels. It can also work for UI-like readouts or faux-monospaced layouts when you want a deliberately imperfect, characterful voice rather than a clean technical tone.
The font projects an offbeat, slightly chaotic typewriter mood—part retro office ephemera, part DIY ransom-note energy. Its sharp little cuts and wobbling edges add a playful roughness that feels comic and a touch mischievous rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears aimed at mimicking a rigid, monospaced typewriter framework while injecting personality through irregular, carved-in details and spiky terminals. The result prioritizes distinctive texture and a memorable silhouette over smooth refinement.
Round letters (like O/C/G) keep a tall, narrow oval footprint, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) look taut and angular. The numerals follow the same chiseled logic, with distinctive, slightly awkward curves that emphasize the novelty character over neutrality.
