A sturdy slab serif with largely uniform stroke weight and softly bracketed, rounded terminals that read like typewriter feet. The letterforms are open and moderately wide, with generous counters and clear joins that keep text legible at a range of sizes. Serifs are compact and blunt rather than sharp, and many ends show small cupped or notched shapes that add a subtle ink-trap/pressed-impression character. Numerals and capitals feel solid and slightly mechanical, with consistent rhythm and calm spacing.
Well-suited to editorial and book typography where a sturdy serif texture is desired without high contrast. It also fits utilitarian contexts like forms, instructions, labels, and signage that benefit from clear shapes and strong baseline anchoring. The typewriter-leaning detailing can add period flavor to packaging, posters, and branding that aims for archival or industrial credibility.
The overall tone is practical and familiar, evoking printed pages, filing cabinets, and classic typewritten documents. Its blunt slabs and even color give it a dependable, no-nonsense voice, while the rounded details add a gentle vintage warmth rather than austerity.
The design appears intended to deliver a durable slab-serif voice with typewriter-like presence: even color, robust serifs, and practical proportions optimized for continuous reading and straightforward communication.
The lowercase shows a straightforward, readable construction (not overly stylized), with a single-storey ‘g’ and simple forms that maintain a steady text texture. The heavy-ish feet and rounded corners create a confident baseline, making lines feel anchored and stable.
