A soft, typewriter-leaning slab serif with generously rounded terminals and heavy, cushiony serifs. Strokes are low-contrast and mostly monoline, with subtle flare where stems meet serifs that creates a slightly inked, printed texture. Counters and apertures stay fairly open, and curves are broad and smooth, giving letters a sturdy but approachable footprint. Overall spacing reads even and readable, while individual glyphs show small idiosyncrasies that add warmth without breaking consistency.
It works well for short-to-medium text where a warm, printed character is desirable—editorial pull quotes, menus, labels, packaging copy, and posters. The strong slab serifs help it hold up at larger sizes for headings, while the open shapes keep it serviceable for paragraph settings when a casual, retro tone fits the brief.
The font conveys an easygoing, human tone—part vintage office imprint, part handcrafted signage. Its rounded slabs and slightly inky joins suggest familiarity and informality, making the voice feel friendly, nostalgic, and a bit playful rather than strictly editorial.
The design appears intended to evoke a classic typewriter or stamped-print aesthetic with softened, rounded slab serifs for added friendliness. It prioritizes solid readability and a distinctive, nostalgic texture suitable for expressive text and brand-forward typography.
Uppercase forms are robust and compact, while lowercase maintains clear distinctions (notably a single-storey “g”) and a straightforward rhythm suitable for continuous reading. Numerals are similarly stout and legible, matching the text color and reinforcing the utilitarian, printed feel.
