A slab-serif design with sturdy, compact letterforms and softly rounded terminals. Strokes stay fairly even, while the outlines show subtle wobble and edge wear, as if printed through an ink ribbon or from slightly degraded metal type. Serifs are blocky and blunt, counters are open, and curves (C, O, S) read broad and steady. Spacing feels practical and consistent, producing a firm text rhythm with a lightly irregular, printed texture.
It suits headlines, short passages, and pull quotes where a vintage print or typewritten mood is desired. The distressed edge texture also works well for packaging, labels, and poster graphics that benefit from an intentionally imperfect, tactile finish.
The font conveys an analog, utilitarian tone—suggesting paperwork, labeling, and archival print with a touch of age and grit. Its gentle roughness keeps it from feeling sterile, leaning instead toward familiar, human-made authenticity.
The design appears intended to emulate the look of older printed matter—typewriter or letterpress impressions—by combining sturdy slab-serif construction with restrained irregularities that suggest ink spread and wear.
Uppercase forms are straightforward and sturdy, while the lowercase keeps a traditional, readable structure with a simple single-storey feel in letters like a and g. The numerals appear clear and workmanlike, matching the same worn edge character and blunt serif treatment.
