A compact, monoline slab serif with softly rounded corners and distinctive ball-like terminals at stroke ends. Serifs read as blunt, bracketless slabs that stay consistent in thickness with the stems, giving the face a sturdy, even rhythm. Curves are open and slightly irregular in a humanized way, with simplified joins and a gently bouncy baseline feel in running text. The overall texture is dense and dark without sharp contrast, and spacing is moderately tight, reinforcing a typewriter-like color on the page.
Well-suited to short-display settings where its soft slab character can read clearly: posters, headlines, packaging, labels, and brand marks. It can also work for brief text blocks or pull quotes when a friendly, retro texture is desired, though its dense color is best used at comfortable sizes.
The tone is warm and approachable, with a nostalgic, analog character reminiscent of rubber-stamp or typewriter impressions. Its rounded details and playful proportions make it feel casual and personable rather than formal or editorial.
The design appears aimed at combining the solidity and clarity of slab serifs with a rounded, human touch. By keeping stroke weight even and finishing terminals with softened shapes, it prioritizes an approachable, crafted feel while maintaining dependable readability.
Uppercase forms lean toward simple, archetypal constructions, while the lowercase introduces more personality through bulb terminals and slightly springy curves. Numerals are straightforward and legible, matching the same rounded, monoline logic for a cohesive set.
