A restrained slab-serif with near-uniform stroke weight and small, bracketed serifs that read clearly even at lighter sizes. The design keeps a steady rhythm through simple, sturdy stems and softly rounded curves, with open apertures and unobtrusive details. Proportions are relatively compact in width with modest extenders, giving lines a tidy, economical texture while maintaining comfortable internal space in letters like O, e, and g.
Well suited to longer passages in print or PDF-like layouts where a steady, readable slab-serif texture helps scanning. It also fits utilitarian applications—forms, documentation, labels, and captions—where consistent strokes and clear serifs support legibility at smaller sizes.
The overall tone feels practical and dependable, with a subtle typewriter and academic flavor. It conveys clarity and order more than flair, suggesting notes, forms, and editorial copy where a calm, matter-of-fact voice is desired.
The design appears intended as a functional slab-serif for everyday reading and information display, balancing a traditional serif structure with simplified, even-weight strokes. It prioritizes clarity, consistency, and a composed page color over decorative character.
The numerals follow the same straightforward construction and keep consistent weight with the text, while capitals remain clean and slightly formal. The shapes avoid sharp contrast and exaggerated modulation, favoring an even, workmanlike presence across mixed-case settings.
