A slanted, monoline slab-serif design with chunky, bracketed terminals and softly rounded corners. Strokes stay fairly even in thickness, while subtle ink-like wobble and slightly uneven edges add texture and movement. The proportions feel open and roomy, with compact counters and sturdy serifs that read as blunt wedges rather than sharp hairlines. Overall rhythm is consistent and grid-friendly, but with enough irregularity to keep the color from feeling mechanically rigid.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where character and texture are welcome: headlines, pull quotes, packaging copy, labels, menus, and poster typography. It can also work for editorial subheads or captions when a retro, tactile voice is desired and the slanted, slabby shapes won’t compete with fine detail.
The font projects a vintage, typewriter-adjacent personality with a friendly roughness—confident, a bit worn-in, and casually expressive. Its slant and sturdy serifs give it a dynamic, workmanlike tone that suggests stamped, printed, or field-notes aesthetics rather than polished corporate refinement.
The design appears intended to blend the discipline of a slab-serif structure with a deliberate, ink-pressed irregularity, creating a dependable but personable voice. It aims to evoke vintage printing and typewritten ephemera while staying bold and legible in compact settings.
Curves (like in C/O/S) carry a slightly flattened, press-like contour, and many joins show gentle swelling where strokes meet, reinforcing the inked impression. Numerals match the letterforms’ sturdy build and angled stance, keeping the texture uniform across mixed text.
