A monospaced, typewriter-like serif design with sturdy, blunt slab-like feet and subtly flared terminals. Strokes keep an overall even weight but show gentle, organic irregularities: edges look slightly inked-in, corners are softened, and curves aren’t perfectly geometric. Counters are open and rounded, with a compact, workmanlike rhythm and consistent set width across letters and numerals. The result is legible and steady, with a faintly distressed, printed texture rather than a crisp digital finish.
It works well for typewriter-styled typography in titles, pull quotes, packaging, and display text where a tactile, printed character is desirable. In longer passages it maintains readable spacing and consistent rhythm, especially when the design goal is an intentionally imperfect, analog page texture.
The font conveys an archival, hands-on feel—like text struck onto paper with a well-used machine. It reads as practical and straightforward, but with enough roughness to suggest authenticity, age, and physical imprint.
The design appears intended to emulate mechanical typing with subtly worn or ink-rich impressions, keeping strict character widths while introducing small imperfections for realism and warmth. It aims for dependable readability paired with a convincingly vintage, physical output feel.
Uppercase forms feel sturdy and poster-ready, while lowercase shapes maintain clear differentiation and a slightly quirky, humanized bounce. Numerals match the same rugged texture, supporting a cohesive “typed page” color in paragraphs and short blocks.
