A sturdy slab-serif with softly rounded corners and ball-like terminals that smooth the overall texture. Strokes are fairly even with low contrast, producing a calm, consistent rhythm in both text and display sizes. Serifs read as bracketed, heavy slabs with rounded edges rather than sharp, crisp slabs, and many joins and terminals are slightly bulbous, giving the forms a cushioned feel. Proportions are classical and readable, with open counters and straightforward construction across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Works well for editorial typography, book or magazine headings, and longer passages where a gentle slab-serif voice is desired. The rounded, sturdy serifs also suit branding, packaging, and signage that benefits from a friendly retro feel and strong legibility.
The rounded slab details create a warm, personable tone that feels lightly vintage and pragmatic rather than formal. It suggests reliability and friendliness—comfortable for reading, but with enough character to feel distinctive and handmade-adjacent without becoming quirky.
The design appears intended to blend the robustness of a slab serif with softened, rounded terminals to make an approachable, versatile face that can move between text and display applications while maintaining a distinctive, warm personality.
The figures share the same soft slab treatment, staying clear and stable with modest curvature in bowls and hooks. In running text the font maintains an even color and steady baseline presence, while the rounded serifs keep edges from feeling harsh at larger sizes.
