A slender slab-serif with bracketed serifs and softly rounded terminals. Strokes stay fairly even, with gentle modulation and a slightly calligraphic feel at joins. Proportions are condensed overall, with narrow capitals and a compact lowercase; counters are modest and apertures are somewhat closed, giving a steady, column-like texture. Curves (C, G, S, 0) read smooth and slightly softened rather than rigidly geometric, while verticals remain straight and consistent, creating an orderly rhythm suitable for continuous reading.
Works well for editorial layouts, book interiors, and other text-forward settings where a narrow footprint is useful. It can also serve in packaging and poster headlines when a vintage slab flavor is desired without heavy weight or sharp contrast.
The tone feels quietly vintage and bookish, like a classic text face seen in printed matter, but with a mild hand-made warmth. Its narrow build and rounded finishing details make it feel approachable and slightly quirky rather than stern or purely industrial.
The design appears aimed at providing a practical slab-serif text face with a condensed economy and softened details, balancing sturdy serifs with a readable, friendly texture for everyday typographic use.
The slab serifs are prominent enough to anchor letters at small sizes, and the overall spacing reads even in the sample text, producing a coherent paragraph color. Numerals match the letterforms’ condensed stance and serif treatment, supporting mixed text-and-number settings without drawing attention.
