A monoline, slab-serif design with sturdy verticals and broad, slightly rounded serifs that read as stamped or struck rather than crisply drawn. The letterforms keep consistent widths and spacing, with softened corners, mild irregularities, and subtly blunted terminals that mimic uneven inking. Counters are open and straightforward, and the overall rhythm is steady and even across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Well-suited for typewritten-style notes, editorial pull quotes, and document-like layouts where an authentic mechanical texture is desired. It also works for labels, packaging callouts, props, and UI mockups that benefit from a clear, evenly spaced monospaced rhythm.
The font conveys a practical, workmanlike tone with a nostalgic, analog edge. Its gentle roughness suggests typed documents and physical impressions, giving text an archival, documentary feel without becoming overly distressed.
The design appears intended to recreate the look of a classic typewriter imprint: consistent character widths, robust slab serifs, and slight edge wear to suggest physical contact and imperfect ink transfer.
Uppercase forms feel bold and authoritative while the lowercase remains compact and highly legible, helping mixed-case settings maintain clarity. Numerals follow the same sturdy construction, keeping a consistent texture in data-heavy lines.
