A heavy, low-contrast slab serif with generously rounded corners and bulb-like slab terminals that read almost as soft caps at stroke ends. Stems are thick and even, with minimal modulation, and the overall construction favors simple, blocky forms and open counters. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short extenders, keeping word shapes dense and highly legible. Curves are smoothed rather than sharp, and the numerals match the same stout, rounded-slab logic for a consistent texture across text and display sizes.
Well suited to headlines and short-to-medium text where strong presence and clarity are needed, such as posters, signage, packaging, and brand marks. The tall x-height and open counters also support readable UI labels or editorial callouts when a friendly, robust slab voice is desired.
The rounded slabs and chunky rhythm give the face a warm, approachable tone with a clear retro flavor. It feels confident and practical rather than delicate, while the softened terminals add friendliness and a hint of play.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold slab-serif voice with softened, rounded terminals to balance strength with friendliness. It aims for high legibility and an even, confident texture while evoking a classic, slightly nostalgic display feel.
The typeface maintains a steady, poster-like color on the page, with sturdy joins and broad spacing that prevent the bold weight from clogging in longer lines. Its softened slabs create a distinctive silhouette in capitals and a cohesive, stamped look in mixed-case settings.
