A compact slab-serif with heavy, even strokes and softly rounded, bracket-like serifs that read as pill-shaped terminals. The letterforms are tightly proportioned with a tall x-height and short extenders, giving text a dense, efficient rhythm. Curves are broad and smooth, counters are relatively small, and joins stay simple and consistent, producing a solid, monoline-like texture across both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals share the same chunky, rounded construction, keeping the overall color uniform in paragraphs and headlines.
Best suited to headlines, short editorial decks, and display typography where its dense rhythm and rounded slabs can carry personality. It also fits packaging, branding marks, and signage that benefit from a sturdy, vintage-leaning voice, and it can work for brief text passages when a compact, typewriter-inspired texture is desired.
The rounded slabs and compact proportions evoke a typewriter and mid-century utilitarian feel, but the softened terminals keep it approachable rather than harsh. It balances sturdiness with a slightly playful, friendly tone, making it feel nostalgic without becoming decorative.
Likely designed to capture a robust slab-serif look with softened, rounded terminals for warmth and legibility, combining a utilitarian, typewriter-like structure with a more contemporary friendliness. The emphasis appears to be on strong presence, consistent texture, and recognizable shapes in both display and short-form text.
Uppercase forms are blocky and stable, while lowercase maintains strong clarity at larger sizes with distinctive, rounded terminals. The overall spacing appears tight in running text, contributing to a bold, poster-friendly presence and a dense paragraph color.
