A heavy, slab‑serif design with compact, uniform letter widths and a steady horizontal rhythm. Strokes are thick and largely even, with blunt, rounded terminals and softened slab feet that create a stamped, slightly inky silhouette. Curves are generous and somewhat squarish, counters stay open despite the weight, and the overall drawing favors sturdy, simplified shapes over fine detail.
Well suited for bold headlines, posters, packaging, and label-style design where a typewritten imprint is part of the aesthetic. It also works for short UI labels, captions, and pull quotes when a sturdy, characterful mono rhythm is desired.
The tone reads like a mechanical imprint with a friendly roughness—nostalgic and workmanlike, with just enough irregular, inked character to feel human. It evokes vintage paperwork and workshop labeling rather than polished editorial typography.
The design appears intended to capture the look of a strong typewriter or stamped impression—dense, dependable forms with softened slabs and an inked feel—prioritizing clarity and personality over refinement.
The boldness and softened slabs make it hold together at display sizes while still remaining legible in short lines. The numerals match the letters in weight and presence, reinforcing a consistent, all-purpose set for tags, headings, and callouts.
