A monoline slab-serif with sturdy, rounded slab terminals and softly eased corners that keep the texture from feeling harsh. Strokes maintain an even weight with minimal modulation, while joins and inner corners show slight notching that adds a subtly mechanical, ink-trap-like crispness. Counters are open and straightforward, and the overall spacing and rhythm read as deliberately regular, supporting consistent word shapes across mixed case and numerals.
Well suited to long-form reading where a consistent, evenly weighted texture is helpful, such as articles, manuals, and documentation. It also performs naturally in structured layouts—forms, tables, captions, and code-like snippets—where steady spacing and sturdy serifs support scanning and alignment.
The face conveys a practical, typed-on-paper character with a gentle vintage tone. Its blunt slabs and steady cadence feel honest and functional, suggesting documentation, labels, and no-nonsense communication rather than elegance or high drama.
Likely designed to capture a classic typewriter/monospaced slab flavor while improving clarity and consistency for modern text setting. The softened slabs and restrained detailing suggest an aim for approachable readability with a familiar, utilitarian voice.
Uppercase forms are compact and stable, with slabbed horizontals and a generally squared-off construction softened by rounded corners. Lowercase maintains clear differentiation and a tidy baseline presence, while the numerals share the same plainspoken, tool-like construction for cohesive setting in mixed alphanumerics.
