A monospaced slab-serif design with sturdy, compact letterforms and gently rounded corners. Strokes are fairly even, with a subtly uneven contour that suggests ink spread or slight wear at the edges rather than crisp vector geometry. Serifs are short and blunt, and many terminals end in small, softened flares that keep the texture lively. Counters are open and shapes remain legible, while the overall rhythm is steady and mechanical, consistent with fixed-width spacing.
Works well when a typewritten tone is desired: short paragraphs in posters and covers, caption-like copy, title cards, and label or packaging applications where a tactile document texture adds personality. It can also suit UI mockups or code-like layouts in graphics where fixed-width alignment is part of the visual concept, especially at display-to-text sizes where the worn edges remain readable.
The font conveys a tactile, archival typewritten feel—practical and matter-of-fact, but softened by slight roughness that reads as human and timeworn. It suggests paperwork, field notes, labels, and reproduced documents, balancing clarity with a gently distressed, analog character.
The design appears intended to mimic mechanical type while introducing subtle irregularities to avoid a sterile, digital feel. Its goal is to deliver dependable monospaced structure with an analog, slightly distressed surface for thematic, story-driven typography.
Capitals are assertive and slightly blocky, while lowercase forms keep a simple, familiar typewriter skeleton. Numerals follow the same sturdy construction and share the same softened edge quality, helping text and data feel cohesive. The consistent advance width creates an orderly grid-like cadence that reinforces a functional, document-oriented tone.
