A monoline slab-serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and gently rounded terminals that soften the overall texture. Strokes stay largely even, with only subtle modulation, and the proportions read slightly expanded with generous bowls and open counters. The lowercase shows a classic, readable build with a single-storey “g” and simple, upright forms, while caps feel calm and evenly weighted. Numerals are clear and straightforward, matching the steady rhythm and consistent spacing seen in text.
Well-suited for editorial typography where a stable, readable slab serif is needed: articles, book interiors, essays, and longer-form reading. It can also work effectively for captions, pull quotes, and informational UI text where clarity and a subtly vintage tone are desirable.
The font conveys a pragmatic, typewriter-adjacent warmth—structured and dependable, yet approachable rather than rigid. Its soft corners and steady cadence suggest editorial clarity with a lightly nostalgic, analog feel.
Likely designed to deliver a readable slab serif with an even, monoline texture and softened details, balancing robustness with an approachable, slightly retro voice for text-driven layouts.
In paragraph settings the letterforms maintain a consistent color and an unhurried rhythm, supporting long lines without looking mechanical. The slab serifs are prominent enough to anchor words, but their rounded joining keeps the tone friendly and readable.
