A heavy, monoline serif with broad proportions and generously rounded corners throughout. The serifs read as slab-like blocks with softened ends, giving a cushioned, almost stamped look rather than sharp, linear terminals. Curves are full and open, counters are spacious, and joins are smooth, producing an even color across lines. Numerals match the letterforms with the same soft slabs and wide, stable silhouettes.
This font performs best in display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where its chunky, rounded slab features can read clearly. It also suits signage and merchandise graphics that benefit from a friendly, high-impact voice.
The overall tone is warm and inviting, with a retro, sign-painting/print vibe that feels confident without being severe. Its rounded slabs add a playful friendliness, making it well suited to upbeat, approachable messaging.
The design appears intended to combine the authority of a slab serif with softened, rounded detailing for a more approachable, contemporary-retro feel. Its wide proportions and sturdy construction prioritize visibility and character in prominent sizes.
In text, the weight and softened detailing create strong presence and consistent rhythm, with particularly sturdy verticals and rounded terminals that resist looking brittle at display sizes. The wide set and prominent serifs make it better suited to short-to-medium passages and headlines than space-constrained layouts.
