A sturdy slab-serif with monoline strokes and softly rounded, bulb-like terminals that give the serifs a cushioned feel. Curves are generous and open, while straight stems stay firm and consistent, producing an even texture in text. Proportions lean slightly compact with clear counters, and the overall rhythm reads steady and deliberate, with subtle flare where strokes meet terminals that suggests a lightly inked, mechanical influence.
Well-suited to readable blocks of text in editorial layouts, where its steady color and open shapes help maintain clarity. It also works nicely for packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a sturdy, friendly slab presence, and for posters or headlines when a retro, workmanlike character is desired without harsh edges.
The face conveys a warm, practical, typewriter-adjacent tone—trustworthy and straightforward rather than sleek or fashion-forward. Its rounded details soften the otherwise utilitarian construction, creating an approachable, slightly nostalgic voice suitable for editorial and everyday messaging.
The design appears intended to blend the dependability of a slab-serif with rounded, inked terminals that temper the tone and improve approachability. It aims for consistent texture and clear letterforms, evoking practical print traditions while remaining comfortable in contemporary layout.
Numerals and capitals feel particularly robust, with strong verticals and confident slab endings that hold up well at smaller sizes. The punctuation and curves maintain the same softened finishing throughout, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case text.
