A heavy, monospaced sans with compact proportions and squared-off curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals read as flat, giving the forms a blocky, engineered finish. Counters are relatively small for the weight, while the overall spacing stays even and rigid across characters, reinforcing a typewriter-like rhythm. The lowercase is straightforward and utilitarian, with sturdy bowls and a single-storey feel in letters like a and g; figures are wide and emphatic, built to hold up in dense settings.
Well-suited to environments where alignment and scanability matter, such as code samples, terminal-style interfaces, tabular readouts, and technical dashboards. Its dense, high-impact shapes also work for labeling, packaging, and bold captions where a rugged, utilitarian texture is desirable.
The font conveys a practical, no-nonsense voice—mechanical, workmanlike, and slightly retro. Its fixed-step rhythm and chunky shapes suggest tools, labels, and equipment more than editorial refinement, lending a confident, functional tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust monospaced voice with clear, durable shapes for structured text. It prioritizes regular rhythm and strong silhouettes over delicacy, aiming for reliable readability in technical and utilitarian contexts.
Round letters (C, O, G) are squarish and tight, and several glyphs show subtle angled joins that add an industrial edge. Punctuation in the sample text appears firm and readable at large sizes, and the consistent character widths create strong vertical alignment in running lines.
