A sturdy slab-serif with square, flat-ended terminals and firmly bracketless-looking slabs. Strokes stay largely even in thickness, producing a steady color on the page, while corners and joins read crisp and geometric. The glyphs sit on a consistent grid with uniform character widths, giving text a mechanical, evenly paced rhythm. Counters are compact and shapes are built from clear verticals, horizontals, and simple curves, contributing to a robust, legible silhouette.
Well-suited for settings where alignment and column integrity matter, such as code blocks, terminal-style UI, tables, and forms. It also works effectively for labels, packaging-style text, and compact headlines where a sturdy slab presence and even rhythm are desirable.
The overall tone is practical and workmanlike, evoking typewriter and industrial labeling aesthetics. Its blunt slabs and measured spacing give it a confident, no-nonsense voice with a slightly retro, technical feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable, grid-aligned slab-serif voice that stays clear under tight spacing and structured layouts, prioritizing uniform rhythm and a strong, mechanical presence.
Numerals and caps appear particularly solid and sign-like, and the lowercase maintains the same squared construction for a cohesive texture in running text. The consistent spacing emphasizes alignment and structure, which can read intentionally rigid and systematic.
