A monoline slab-serif design with typewriter-like, cell-filling proportions and a steady, even rhythm. Strokes stay largely uniform, with rounded joins and softened corners that keep the texture from feeling overly rigid. The serifs are blocky and compact, and many terminals show small notches and subtle irregularities that suggest ink spread or mechanical impact. Counters are open and legible, and the alphabet maintains consistent width and alignment across caps, lowercase, and figures for a tightly paced, grid-friendly set.
Well-suited to layouts that benefit from consistent character widths—tables, labels, UI readouts, and code-like settings—as well as editorial captions and pull quotes where a typed voice is desired. It also works effectively in posters and packaging that aim for a retro printed or office-document aesthetic.
The overall tone is practical and documentary, evoking typed pages, forms, and archival printouts. Its slightly roughened detailing adds a human, lived-in character while still reading as straightforward and workmanlike.
The font appears designed to capture the functional clarity of a typed monospaced face while adding subtle wear and mechanical quirks for atmosphere. The goal seems to be dependable readability with a touch of analog texture rather than pristine geometric precision.
In running text the uniform spacing creates a strong horizontal cadence, with punctuation and round letters contributing to a distinctive, slightly softened “stamped” look. The design’s controlled irregularities are noticeable at display sizes and become a gentle texture at paragraph sizes.
