A lightly weighted roman with rounded slab-like serifs and gently softened terminals throughout. Strokes keep a low-contrast, near-monoline feel, while subtle irregularities in curvature and join shaping create an organic, typewriter-adjacent texture. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed, with fairly open apertures and roomy counters that help maintain clarity. The lowercase shows simple, sturdy forms (single-storey a and g) and modest ascenders/descenders, giving the text an even, steady color with a lightly “inked” impression.
Works well for editorial headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium reading where a retro, typewriter-like flavor is desired without sacrificing legibility. It’s also a good fit for packaging, café/restaurant menus, and approachable branding that benefits from a warm, slightly vintage voice. In posters and social graphics, it delivers character while staying calm and readable at larger sizes.
The overall tone is approachable and nostalgic, evoking utilitarian print and casual correspondence rather than polished corporate minimalism. Rounded serifs and softened corners add warmth, while the restrained contrast keeps it practical and readable. Its rhythm feels slightly quirky and human, lending a relaxed, conversational voice to headlines and short passages.
Likely designed to capture the charm of classic slab-serif and typewriter-inspired forms, but with softened, rounded details that feel modern and friendly. The consistent stroke logic and simple letter shapes prioritize clarity and dependable rhythm, while the subtle quirks add personality for display and editorial use.
Numerals are straightforward and legible with consistent stroke weight, pairing well with the rest of the set for listings and simple data. Capitals read cleanly without excessive ornament, and the ampersand and punctuation shown in the sample text match the same rounded, friendly construction.
