A compact slab-serif with a narrow, upright stance and consistent stroke weight. Letterforms show softly rounded corners and terminals, with small, blunted slab-like serifs that create a stamped, typewriter-like rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and shapes are slightly irregular in a controlled way, giving the texture a lively, analog feel while remaining clearly legible. The lowercase includes simple, single-storey forms and modest extenders, contributing to an even, economical color in text.
Well-suited to headlines, short paragraphs, and pull quotes where a compact, vintage flavor is desired without sacrificing readability. It can work effectively on packaging, labels, café/restaurant menus, and poster typography, especially when you want a typewriter-adjacent look with softer edges.
The overall tone feels retro and personable, combining the practicality of a typewriter voice with a gentle, rounded warmth. Its condensed proportions and soft slabs read as quirky and approachable rather than severe, suggesting an intentionally imperfect, human touch.
The font appears designed to evoke typewritten and stamped lettering through condensed proportions and slab-like serifs, while rounding terminals to add warmth and reduce harshness. The result balances utilitarian clarity with a distinctive, nostalgic personality for display and expressive text use.
The design maintains a steady vertical cadence with minimal contrast and rounded finishing throughout, which helps unify mixed-case settings. The narrow fit and tight internal spaces make it visually efficient, while the softened slab details keep it from feeling mechanical.
