A monospaced slab serif with square-ended strokes and consistently firm, rectangular serifs. The design keeps a steady rhythm and even color across lines, with largely monoline construction, compact joins, and minimal contrast. Rounds are slightly squared-off, giving bowls and curves a crisp, engineered feel, while proportions read on the wide side with generous internal space for clarity.
Well-suited to contexts where fixed character widths matter, such as code displays, terminal-style interfaces, and tabular layouts. It also works for technical labeling, form fields, and concise headings where a structured, no-nonsense voice is desirable.
The overall tone is pragmatic and mechanical, evoking typewriter and terminal-era lettering without feeling overly decorative. Its strict spacing and blocky detailing communicate structure and reliability, with a subdued retro character that suits informational, systemlike typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a clear, consistent monospaced reading experience with a sturdy slab-serif skeleton and square terminals. It prioritizes alignment, predictability, and a classic utilitarian presence over expressive calligraphic detail.
The sample text shows very consistent spacing and alignment, reinforcing a grid-first, coding-friendly cadence. Square terminals and slab serifs stay visually uniform across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, producing a tidy texture that remains legible at larger display sizes and holds its shape in dense lines.
