A monospaced slab-serif design with compact, squarish proportions and sturdy, low-contrast strokes. Terminals are blunt and slightly flared, with softened corners and irregular edges that mimic ink spread or worn type. Counters are relatively open for the style, while joins and serifs show subtle wobble and roughness that keeps the texture lively across lines. Numerals follow the same sturdy, stamped construction and maintain the same cell-width rhythm as the letters.
Works well when a credible typewriter voice is needed: screenplay-style layouts, notes, archival captions, and editorial pull quotes. The sturdy slabs and textured imprint also suit posters, zines, packaging labels, and branding elements that benefit from an authentic, printed-on-paper character.
The overall tone is unmistakably typewritten and analog, evoking paper, ink, and mechanical imprint rather than clean digital precision. Its roughened edges and uneven imprint lend a documentary, archival feel with a hint of grit, suitable for work that wants to appear tactile and lived-in.
The design appears intended to simulate a mechanical typewriter impression with realistic wear, ink spread, and slight irregularity, while keeping a consistent monospaced rhythm for practical setting. It prioritizes tactile atmosphere and period flavor over pristine geometry.
Because the distressed texture is present on nearly every glyph, the font creates a consistent “printed” color at text sizes, but the roughness becomes more pronounced as sizes increase. Wide set characters and strong slabs give headlines a bold, poster-like presence even without high stroke contrast.
