A rounded slab-serif with lightly inked contours and softly braced serifs that read as gently flared, rather than sharp or blocky. Strokes stay largely even, with subtle swelling and slight irregularity that suggests an analog or stamped impression. Curves are open and generous, counters are roomy, and terminals tend to finish with rounded corners, giving the face an approachable texture. Overall spacing is comfortable and the rhythm is steady, with a mildly uneven, humanized edge that becomes more apparent in the lowercase and numerals.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book or zine layouts, and short-to-medium text where a warm, printed texture is desirable. It can also work effectively for packaging, café/restaurant materials, and poster headlines that benefit from a retro, typewritten voice without becoming overly decorative.
The font conveys a vintage, typewriter-adjacent tone that feels informal and personable. Its rounded corners and soft slab details keep it friendly and readable, while the lightly distressed/inked look adds a nostalgic, editorial character. The result is more cozy and conversational than corporate or technical.
The design appears intended to capture the familiarity of typewritten or letterpress-like text while smoothing the experience with rounded slabs and calm stroke behavior. It aims for everyday readability with a touch of nostalgic character, providing a distinctive voice without sacrificing clarity.
Capitals have simple, classical proportions with softened serif joins, and the lowercase maintains a clear, straightforward construction that prioritizes legibility. Numerals follow the same rounded, slightly inked logic, blending well with text settings and reinforcing the analog, printed feel.
