A wide, low-contrast slab serif with blocky, square-ended forms that are subtly softened by rounded corners. Strokes maintain an even, sturdy rhythm, while the serifs read as solid slabs rather than sharp brackets. The overall color is dark and confident, with generous horizontal proportions, open bowls, and clear interior counters. Details like the long crossbar on T, the broad U, and the compact, sturdy lowercase stems reinforce a stable, display-oriented texture.
This font is well suited to headlines, posters, and large-format copy where its wide stance and slab structure can create impact. It also fits packaging and branding that wants a retro, friendly sturdiness, and works well for signage or labels where clear, blocky forms help maintain readability.
The tone feels friendly and slightly retro, with a sturdy, sign-like presence that stays approachable rather than formal. Its wide footprint and softened slab details give it a playful, dependable character suitable for upbeat, everyday messaging.
The design appears intended to merge the robustness of slab serifs with softened, contemporary corners and generous proportions. It aims for a bold, personable display voice that remains clear and steady across mixed-case text and numerals.
The numerals are broad and simple, matching the letterforms’ even stroke weight and squared finishing. Across the sample text, spacing and rhythm emphasize a chunky, readable texture that favors short-to-medium settings where the width can become part of the voice.
