A sturdy serif with slab-like feet and noticeably rounded terminals throughout, giving the letterforms a softened, almost stamped look. Strokes are largely even with minimal contrast, and the joins and corners are blunted rather than sharp, producing a gentle, tactile silhouette. Proportions lean broad with generous interior space, and the overall rhythm is slightly irregular in a humanized way, as if drawn with a marker or cut from rubber type. Numerals and caps share the same heavy, rounded serif treatment, keeping texture consistent across the set.
Well suited to display settings where a friendly, characterful serif is needed—such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for short passages like pull quotes or introductions where a warm, vintage-leaning texture is desirable.
The rounded slabs and buoyant spacing create an easygoing, approachable tone with a subtle vintage flavor. It feels informal and warm rather than strict or editorial, lending a playful confidence that reads well at a glance.
The design appears intended to combine the stability of a slab serif with rounded, softened detailing for a more inviting, less rigid voice. Its broad shapes and consistent stroke weight prioritize clarity and impact, while the humanized curves add charm and approachability.
Several letters show distinctive, characterful shaping (notably in curved forms and diagonals), which adds personality while keeping the overall construction consistent. The softened serifs and terminals help prevent harsh edges, making the texture feel smooth and friendly in blocks of text.
