A compact slab-serif with softly rounded, bracketed terminals and an even, low-contrast stroke. The letterforms are narrow with tall proportions and a steady vertical rhythm, while counters remain open enough to keep text clear. Serifs read as small, rounded “pads” rather than sharp wedges, and joins and corners are consistently softened, giving the face a cohesive, slightly mechanical but approachable texture.
Works well for editorial typography where a compact footprint is useful—magazines, books, and pull quotes—especially when you want a vintage or typewritten flavor. It also suits packaging, labels, and posters that benefit from a sturdy slab-serif presence without sharp, aggressive edges.
The overall tone feels typewriter-adjacent and retro, balancing utilitarian structure with a gentle, friendly warmth. Its rounded slabs add a subtle quirk that reads as informal and characterful without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to evoke classic type and print artifacts while staying clean and readable in continuous text. By combining narrow proportions with rounded slab terminals and restrained contrast, it aims for a practical, space-saving serif with a personable, nostalgic voice.
In text, the narrow set creates a dense column and a pronounced vertical cadence, making the font feel efficient and space-conscious. Numerals and capitals maintain the same padded-serif language, reinforcing a consistent, stamped-like personality across the set.
