A sturdy slab-serif with softly rounded corners and thick, rounded bracket-like joins that give the serifs a cushioned feel. Strokes stay largely even in thickness with low contrast, producing a consistent, solid color in text. Proportions are relatively wide with open counters and clear separation between stems and serifs; curves are smooth and slightly simplified, keeping shapes calm rather than sharp. Numerals and caps follow the same softened slab logic, yielding a cohesive, gently mechanical rhythm.
Works well for branding and display applications that benefit from a sturdy but friendly slab presence, such as packaging, café/retail signage, posters, and headline typography. It can also serve for short-to-medium text where a warm, retro flavor is desired without sacrificing clarity.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, blending a classic slab-serif backbone with a softened, almost hand-friendly finish. It suggests a retro, down-to-earth personality—more neighborhood signage and packaging than formal editorial typography.
Designed to deliver the dependable structure of a slab serif while softening the feel through rounded terminals and gentle shaping. The intent appears to balance readability and robustness with an informal, inviting character suitable for contemporary and vintage-leaning design contexts.
In the sample text, the rounded slab terminals help reduce harshness at large sizes, while the even stroke weight keeps paragraphs steady and legible. The ampersand and punctuation inherit the same softened treatment, supporting a consistent voice across mixed-case settings.
