A monoline serif with broad, soft slab-like serifs and rounded terminals that keep corners from feeling sharp. The letterforms are wide with open counters and a steady, even stroke, giving text a calm rhythm and strong horizontal emphasis. Uppercase shapes are sturdy and straightforward, while the lowercase maintains clear, readable silhouettes with a compact, practical detailing in joins and endings. Numerals match the same soft, sturdy construction, reading clearly with simple, un-fussy forms.
Well suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and magazine or newspaper-inspired layouts where a readable, sturdy serif with a touch of nostalgia is desired. It can also work effectively in branding and packaging that aims for a handcrafted or retro-industrial feel, and in posters where its wide stance and slab details create clear, confident emphasis.
The overall tone feels typewriter-adjacent and nostalgic, but softened—more friendly than mechanical. Its wide proportions and rounded slabs convey an approachable, utilitarian character that suggests editorial reliability and casual charm rather than strict formality.
The design appears intended to blend typewriter-inspired sturdiness with rounded, approachable detailing, creating a dependable serif that reads clearly while projecting a warm, vintage-leaning personality. Its wide proportions and consistent stroke suggest a focus on strong presence and steady texture in display and short-form text.
In the text sample, the face holds together well at larger sizes, where the rounded slab serifs become a defining texture. The wide set and pronounced horizontals give lines a steady, grounded color that can feel bold in presence without relying on heavy stroke weight.
