A compact slab serif with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and softly rounded terminals throughout. Serifs are blunt and bracketed in feel, giving corners a cushioned, inked look rather than sharp mechanical edges. Proportions run narrow with a relatively short x-height and clear, open counters; curves are generous and slightly irregular in rhythm, lending a humanized texture in continuous text. Numerals follow the same rounded, sturdy construction, with simple, legible forms and a calm, even color on the page.
Well-suited for editorial settings where a friendly slab serif can carry long passages without feeling cold, including books, magazines, and cultural publishing. Its compact width also makes it useful for packaging and identity work that needs a sturdy, approachable typographic anchor, and for display lines in posters or headlines that benefit from a warm vintage flavor.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, blending a vintage book/print sensibility with a slightly quirky, hand-touched character. It feels dependable and readable, yet not austere—more friendly editorial than formal corporate.
Likely intended to provide a readable, compact slab serif with softened details—combining dependable text performance with rounded, characterful terminals that add warmth and memorability.
The softened stroke endings and rounded serif joins help maintain clarity at text sizes while adding a distinctive, gently playful voice. Capitals are straightforward and sturdy; lowercase shows more personality through subtly varied curves and compact vertical proportions.
