A condensed, monoline serif with compact proportions and a gently irregular, hand-set rhythm. Stems are straight and slender, while many stroke endings resolve into rounded, slab-like nubs that read as soft serifs rather than sharp wedges. Curves are narrow and upright, with small counters and a generally tight, economical structure; lowercase letters sit on a relatively modest x-height with tall ascenders that add vertical emphasis. Overall spacing feels slightly uneven in a purposeful, analog way, reinforcing a printed or typed texture.
It suits editorial headlines, book and magazine covers, and packaging where a compact, vintage voice is desired. The condensed build can help fit longer titles into tight spaces, while the soft slab-like endings keep it friendly for display typography in posters and brand marks.
The font conveys a vintage, typewriter-adjacent personality that feels personable and slightly quirky rather than strictly mechanical. Its narrow, upright stance and rounded slab details give it a warm, literary tone with a hint of old-world eccentricity.
The design appears intended to blend typewriter-era charm with a cleaner, more controlled serif construction. By keeping contrast restrained and adding rounded slab terminals, it aims for a legible, compact display texture that feels human and printed rather than purely industrial.
Rounded terminals appear consistently across both cases and numerals, lending softness to otherwise rigid vertical forms. The numerals and punctuation shown in the sample text maintain the same narrow, upright cadence, supporting a cohesive page color at text sizes.
