A compact slab serif with sturdy, blocky serifs and a mostly even stroke weight. The serifs are short and strongly present, with subtle bracketing and rounded joins that soften the otherwise mechanical structure. Counters are relatively small and the rhythm is tight, giving the letters a dense, economical footprint. The lowercase shows single-storey forms for a and g, a modest x-height, and straightforward, no-nonsense construction; figures share the same squared-off, slabbed finish.
Well suited for editorial typography and book or long-form text where a dense, traditional texture is desired. It also works effectively for labels, captions, and interface-like text that benefits from a strong, utilitarian presence, and for designs aiming at a typewriter or vintage print impression.
The overall tone recalls typewriter and industrial printing, projecting a practical, straightforward voice with a slightly vintage, editorial flavor. Its firm slabs and restrained detailing make it feel authoritative and workmanlike rather than delicate or calligraphic.
Likely intended to deliver a durable slab-serif voice with typewriter-inspired sturdiness, prioritizing compactness, consistency, and a dependable text color across lines and blocks of copy.
The design emphasizes consistent vertical stress and strong baseline anchoring, with minimal contrast and clear, squared punctuation-like terminals on many strokes. The compact proportions and sturdy serifs create a distinct texture in paragraphs, especially in all-caps settings.
