A monoline serif with tall, condensed proportions and softly rounded slab-like serifs. Strokes stay even with minimal contrast, and joins and corners are gently eased rather than sharp, giving the letterforms a slightly worn, inked-in feel. Counters are moderately open and the overall rhythm is airy, with noticeable vertical emphasis and calm, steady spacing in text.
Works well for editorial layouts, book interiors, and long-form text where a typewriter-leaning serif adds personality without heavy contrast. It can also support packaging, labels, and posters that benefit from a vintage, utilitarian voice and a compact horizontal footprint.
The tone is nostalgic and human, evoking typewritten documents and mid-century printed matter while staying approachable rather than formal. Its rounded details and restrained structure read as friendly and unpretentious, lending a quiet, editorial character.
The design appears intended to blend typewriter-inspired familiarity with a smoother, more contemporary softness, using rounded slab-like serifs and even strokes for dependable readability. It aims for a practical text color while keeping enough character for display moments.
Uppercase forms are simple and sturdy, while lowercase shows clear, readable constructions with modest roundness in bowls and terminals. Numerals follow the same tall, straightforward build, with an "8" that stays compact and a "1" with a clean, linear silhouette, helping the set feel consistent in running text.
