A soft-edged slab serif with gently rounded terminals and subtly flared, bracketed slabs that read like typewriter-inspired feet rather than sharp, rigid serifs. Strokes stay fairly even, with slight organic modulation and a mildly “inked” texture in the curves. Proportions are open and readable, with generous counters and a steady rhythm; round letters are slightly squarish and the overall drawing favors sturdy, simple forms over refinement. Numerals and capitals feel sturdy and anchored, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike structure.
Works well where a readable slab serif with personality is desired: short editorial passages, book or zine covers, packaging, and branding that leans vintage or handcrafted. It can also serve for headlines and pull quotes when you want a typewriter-adjacent voice with a softer, friendlier finish than classic monospace typewriter faces.
The tone is warm and familiar, evoking typewritten pages and utilitarian print without feeling harsh. Rounded details soften the slab structure, giving the face an approachable, slightly nostalgic character suited to informal or story-like settings.
Likely designed to capture the dependable presence of slab serifs while borrowing the approachable, slightly nostalgic cues of typewritten lettering. The rounded terminals and steady stroke weight suggest an emphasis on legibility and warmth over sharp precision.
The letterforms show small idiosyncrasies—particularly in joins and curves—that add personality and a lightly imperfect, analog feel. Spacing appears comfortable in text, supporting an easy reading flow while keeping a distinctive “typed” color on the page.
