A very light, monoline slab serif with crisp, square-cut serifs and mostly unbracketed joins. The letterforms are broadly proportioned with generous horizontal space and open counters, giving the text a calm, airy rhythm. Curves are smooth but restrained, while straight strokes end in flat terminals that emphasize a mechanical, constructed feel. Details like the single-storey a and g, the looped g ear, and the long, straight crossbars contribute to a distinctive, slightly idiosyncratic texture in running text.
This font suits editorial headlines, book and magazine typography, and display settings where a light slab serif can add structure without heaviness. It also works well for posters and branding that want a vintage or typewriter-adjacent voice while remaining crisp and readable.
The overall tone is intellectual and nostalgic, blending a typewriter-like dryness with a refined, editorial poise. Its light footprint and wide stance make it feel measured and deliberate, with a subtle quirky charm that keeps it from reading as purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classic slab-serif/typewriter lineage with extra width and a delicate stroke weight, creating an airy, composed texture that still carries mechanical clarity. Its consistent monoline build and squared serif treatment prioritize a clean, constructed look with a hint of personality.
Numerals follow the same light, wide construction with simple, open forms; the 2 and 3 show pronounced, rounded curves, while 7 is sharply angled and spare. Uppercase shapes are clean and classical in skeleton, with slab accents that read clearly at larger sizes.
