A compact serif with sturdy, slab-like feet and softly rounded terminals throughout. Strokes stay largely even in weight, with gentle swelling at joins and rounded corners that keep the texture smooth and approachable. Proportions are on the narrow side with a slightly bouncy rhythm, and many letters show subtle typewriter-like quirks—curved joints, small beak-like details, and rounded slab endings. The numerals are similarly rounded and sturdy, with clear, simple forms that match the text color.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book or magazine text, and other long-form settings where a steady, typewriter-like texture is desired without feeling harsh. It also works effectively for packaging, labels, and branding systems that benefit from a retro, approachable serif presence, and for posters or headlines when a compact, characterful voice is needed.
The overall tone feels vintage and human, balancing the practicality of a typewriter-inspired serif with a softer, friendlier finish. Its rounded slabs and compact spacing give it an approachable, informal voice that reads as nostalgic rather than formal.
The design appears intended to evoke typewritten or mid-century print textures while improving friendliness through rounded slabs and softened corners. It prioritizes a consistent, even stroke and compact proportions to maintain a reliable text rhythm with a touch of handmade charm.
The font maintains a consistent color in paragraphs, with crisp counters and minimal contrast that helps keep letterforms stable at text sizes. Rounded slab terminals are prominent on verticals and horizontals, while curves stay smooth and slightly elastic, giving the face a warm, crafted character.
