A chunky slab-serif with softly rounded corners and largely even stroke weight. Serifs are short and blunt with a slightly flared, inked-in feel, giving the outlines a gently irregular, stamped quality without looking messy. Counters tend toward round and open, and the overall color is dark and steady, with compact internal space at text sizes. Proportions are slightly condensed in some letters with lively width variation across the set, creating a bouncy rhythm in words and lines.
Well suited to short-to-medium display settings where its chunky slabs and soft terminals can carry personality—headlines, posters, packaging, and logo or wordmark explorations. It can also work for pull quotes and brief passages when a warm, retro tone is desired, though its heavy color and compact counters favor larger sizes.
The face reads warm and approachable, with a nostalgic, poster-like personality. Its softened slabs and subtly wobbly contours suggest hand-set type or an inked imprint, bringing a casual charm that feels more playful than formal.
Likely designed to deliver a bold slab-serif voice with an intentionally human, inked character—combining sturdy, readable silhouettes with softened details to feel welcoming and nostalgic rather than rigid or industrial.
Uppercase forms are sturdy and emphatic, while lowercase keeps a compact, slightly squat feel that reinforces the font’s weight and friendliness. Numerals are bold and rounded, matching the same softened slab treatment and maintaining strong visibility.
