A sturdy slab serif with generously rounded corners and softly swelling terminals that give the letterforms a cushioned, inked feel. Strokes stay largely even, with minimal contrast and broad, blunt serifs that read clearly at a glance. Curves are full and open, counters are roomy, and joins tend toward smooth, slightly bracketed transitions rather than sharp intersections. The overall rhythm is steady and solid, with a slightly expansive stance and comfortable spacing that keeps text from feeling cramped.
Works well for editorial headlines and subheads where a strong, personable serif is needed, and for branding or packaging that benefits from a vintage-leaning but clean voice. Its sturdy shapes also suit posters and short-display copy, and it remains legible enough for pull quotes and larger blocks of text.
The rounded slabs and softened edges create a warm, approachable tone that feels lightly nostalgic without becoming gimmicky. It suggests friendliness and practicality—confident enough for headlines, but calm and readable in longer passages.
Likely designed to deliver a robust slab-serif presence while softening the tone through rounded terminals and gentle joins, balancing authority with approachability for versatile display and text-forward applications.
Figures are bold and simple with the same rounded slab treatment, matching the text color well. Uppercase forms feel stable and signage-like, while lowercase retains clear, familiar shapes that support continuous reading.
