A lightly built slab serif with monolinear strokes and softly bracketed, rectangular serifs. The letterforms are compact and upright, with a steady rhythm and gently rounded joins that keep the texture even in paragraphs. Counters are generally open and bowls are modestly rounded; terminals and serifs have a slightly blunt, utilitarian finish. Numerals follow the same restrained, sturdy logic, with simple forms and consistent stroke endings.
It suits editorial and book typography where a gentle slab presence can add structure without heavy contrast, and it can also work well for certificates, labels, and packaging that benefit from a vintage-document feel. At text sizes it maintains a consistent, readable texture, while in headings it delivers a modest, classic voice rather than a loud display statement.
The overall tone feels typewriter-adjacent and quietly retro, suggesting printed matter, correspondence, and practical documentation rather than high-fashion polish. Its calm, workmanlike shapes read as trustworthy and familiar, with a mild handmade imperfection that adds warmth without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to provide a straightforward, legible slab serif with a lightly typed, archival flavor—combining consistent strokes and bracketing to keep pages calm and readable while adding just enough character for identity and tone.
Capitals have a traditional serif structure with moderate width and clear differentiation, while lowercase shows tall, simple ascenders and uncomplicated construction that maintains readability. Spacing appears comfortable and the paragraph color remains even, with the slab serifs providing subtle horizontal emphasis.
