A sturdy slab-serif with low contrast and softened, rounded terminals that keep the texture calm and even. Serifs read as bracketed, pill-like blocks rather than sharp slabs, and many joins and corners are subtly eased, giving the forms a slightly cushioned feel. Proportions are on the wider side with generous bowls and open apertures; the overall rhythm is steady and highly legible in text. Uppercase forms are straightforward and classical in structure, while lowercase shapes remain simple and workmanlike, with clear dots and uncomplicated curves. Numerals appear robust and readable, matching the same rounded-serif treatment and consistent stroke weight.
Well-suited for long-form reading in books, magazines, and reports where a steady texture and high legibility are priorities. It can also work effectively in UI copy and documentation, and in packaging or labels when a retro, utilitarian voice is desired without looking overly harsh.
The font conveys a practical, typewriter-adjacent tone—functional and dependable—while the rounded serifs add warmth and approachability. It feels editorial and familiar, with a gently vintage character that suits straightforward communication rather than high-fashion refinement.
The design appears intended to blend the authority and structure of a slab-serif with softer, rounded finishing to create an approachable, highly readable workhorse. It aims for familiar, typewriter-like practicality while staying polished enough for contemporary editorial use.
Spacing appears comfortable, and the softened terminals help reduce harshness at larger sizes while maintaining clarity in continuous reading. The overall silhouette stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, slightly mechanical but friendly page color.
