A sturdy slab-serif with softly rounded, bracketed serifs and low-contrast strokes. The letterforms feel broad and open, with generous curves, rounded joins, and a steady, even rhythm that reads clearly in text. Terminals and corners are consistently softened, giving the shapes a less rigid, more tactile finish while keeping strong verticals and confident capitals.
Well-suited to headlines, brand identities, and packaging that need a sturdy but welcoming serif. It also performs comfortably in short-to-medium editorial text and informational signage where clarity and a personable tone are both important.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a subtle retro and academic flavor reminiscent of printed signage and classic editorial type. Its softened slabs keep it friendly rather than formal, lending a dependable, easygoing voice.
The design appears intended to combine the authority and structure of slab serifs with softened details that improve approachability. It aims for a balance of strong presence and comfortable readability across display and text applications.
Capitals have a solid, poster-ready presence, while lowercase maintains clarity through open counters and simple, unforced forms. Numerals match the same rounded slab treatment, supporting a cohesive texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
