A slender slab-serif with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals that give the serifs a cushioned, bracketed feel. Proportions run tall and relatively compact, with narrow bowls and generous vertical rhythm; curves stay smooth and open, keeping counters readable despite the condensed build. Details like the single-storey a and g, a narrow e, and simple, straight-sided capitals reinforce a utilitarian, print-oriented texture. Numerals follow the same light, rounded slab logic, with a plain 1 and a curved 2/3 that read clearly at text sizes.
Works well for text-forward applications where a warm, classic texture is desired—editorial layouts, book and magazine typography, and packaging or labels that benefit from a typewriter-leaning mood. It can also serve as a display face for headlines when a narrow, retro slab presence is needed without heavy weight.
The overall tone suggests a typewriter-inspired, vintage voice that feels practical and familiar rather than formal. Rounded slab endings soften the mechanical structure, adding an approachable, slightly nostalgic character suited to storytelling and editorial settings.
The design appears intended to blend the reliability of a traditional slab serif with rounded, friendly finishing, producing a readable text face that carries a subtle typewritten nostalgia. Its disciplined structure and consistent stroke treatment aim for dependable paragraph performance while retaining a distinctive, period-flavored personality.
Spacing appears even and measured, creating a steady line color in paragraphs. The design’s consistent stroke weight and restrained contrast help maintain clarity in continuous text while still delivering distinctive, gently quirky letterforms.
