A monoline, typewriter-like design with squarish counters and a steady monospace rhythm, overlaid with deliberately irregular contours. Strokes are thickened and softened by blotchy, uneven edges, with occasional pinched corners and slightly wavy horizontals/verticals that mimic ink spread or rough printing. Terminals tend toward blunt, rounded ends, and the overall construction stays fairly geometric even as the outlines break up, creating a consistent distressed texture across letters and numerals.
Well-suited for posters, headlines, and short blocks of copy where a distressed, tactile tone is desirable. It also fits packaging, zines, and album/film graphics that benefit from an aged print or photocopied aesthetic, and can add character to UI or captions when used sparingly.
The font reads as gritty and analog, with a handmade, imperfect voice that feels pulled from a worn page or a heavily used stamp. Its consistent spacing keeps it disciplined, while the roughened outlines add personality and a slightly mischievous, lo-fi energy.
The design appears intended to combine the reliable cadence of monospaced, typewritten forms with a deliberately degraded surface, suggesting wear, ink bleed, or imperfect reproduction. It prioritizes atmosphere and texture while keeping letterforms structurally simple for readability.
Texture is distributed across both exterior contours and interior counters, producing a mottled silhouette that remains legible at text sizes but becomes more characterful as size increases. The uniform advance width reinforces a typed cadence, while the distressing prevents it from feeling mechanical.
