A condensed, monoline serif with tall proportions and soft slab-like terminals. Strokes stay largely even from stem to curve, and corners are rounded, giving the serifs and joins a cushioned, stamped feel. The uppercase is narrow and upright with a steady vertical rhythm, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, readable construction with gently pinched curves and compact counters. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright pattern and feel consistent in weight and color with the letters.
This style suits branding and packaging that want a vintage or typewriter-flavored personality without looking distressed. Its narrow set makes it effective for headlines, posters, and labels where space is limited, and the steady stroke weight keeps it serviceable for short editorial passages and captions when a distinctive voice is desired.
The overall tone reads as typewriter-adjacent and retro, with a slightly playful, handmade crispness rather than a purely mechanical finish. Rounded serifs and softened terminals make it feel approachable and friendly, even when set in dense lines. Its tight, vertical stance adds a no-nonsense, utilitarian energy that still comes across as characterful.
It appears designed to blend a condensed, economical silhouette with softened slab terminals, aiming for a typewriter-like practicality with added warmth. The consistent stroke weight and rounded endings suggest an intention to keep color even in text while preserving a recognizable, character-driven texture.
The design relies on repeated vertical stems and consistent terminal shaping, producing an even texture in paragraphs. Rounded slab endings show up across capitals, lowercase, and figures, helping maintain a cohesive voice in mixed-case settings.
