A sturdy slab-serif with chunky, bracketed serifs and mostly square-ended terminals. Strokes are low-contrast and visibly softened, with slight waviness and irregularities that suggest an inked or pressed impression rather than rigid geometry. Counters are open and generous, while curves (notably in C, G, S, and the lowercase) have a subtly uneven rhythm. The overall spacing and alignment feel intentionally a bit bouncy, giving the letterforms a lively, informal texture.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, headings, packaging, and signage where a tactile, vintage feel is desirable. It can also work for short editorial callouts or chapter openers, but the irregular rhythm may become distracting in long-form body text at smaller sizes.
The font reads as warm and approachable, with a rustic, vintage flavor. Its small quirks and uneven rhythm add personality and a handmade tone, lending a casual, human presence to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended to blend the authority of a slab serif with the charm of imperfect printing. By keeping the structure sturdy and legible while introducing subtle wobble and softened corners, it aims to communicate character, approachability, and a lightly retro, handcrafted impression.
Uppercase forms are bold and poster-like, while the lowercase maintains the same slabby structure with compact, slightly playful details (such as the single-storey a and g, and a curved-descender q). Numerals share the same sturdy, inked character and look well-suited to display settings where texture is a feature rather than a flaw.
