A compact slab serif with strongly squared terminals and a consistent, even stroke. The letterforms are built from straight stems and simple curves, with minimal modulation and firm, rectangular serifs that read clearly at text sizes. Proportions feel contained and columnar, keeping a steady rhythm across lines, while counters stay open enough to preserve legibility. Numerals and capitals share the same disciplined, workmanlike construction, reinforcing a uniform, grid-friendly texture.
Well-suited to applications that benefit from strict alignment and predictable spacing, such as code snippets, tabular data, technical documentation, and UI readouts. It also works for utilitarian editorial uses—captions, sidebars, and labels—where a firm, structured slab serif voice helps maintain clarity in dense text.
The overall tone is practical and mechanical, recalling typewritten or industrial labeling aesthetics. It feels straightforward and dependable rather than expressive, with a subtle vintage/utility character that suggests documents, tools, and systems.
The design appears intended as a disciplined, easy-to-read slab serif that prioritizes consistency and alignment over calligraphic detail. Its sturdy serifs and restrained shapes aim to deliver a dependable, text-forward voice with a practical, typewriter-adjacent feel.
Round letters keep their bowls fairly vertical and controlled, and joins tend to be crisp, giving the face a slightly engineered look. The punctuation and simple forms in the sample text maintain a consistent darkness and spacing, producing a stable, even typographic color in paragraphs.
