A condensed, heavy display serif with angular, chiseled terminals and frequent chamfered corners that give strokes a cut-metal, beveled impression. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like rather than bracketed, and many joins resolve into pointed notches or triangular cut-ins, producing a rugged, faceted rhythm. Counters tend to be compact and squared-off, with a strong vertical emphasis and a tight, poster-ready texture in words and lines.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as posters, headlines, logos, labels, and signage where its carved details can be appreciated. It also works well for themed branding—heritage, craft, or industrial concepts—where a forceful, high-impact serif is desired.
The overall tone is bold and commanding, with a historic-meets-mechanical flavor that evokes gothic signage and old-style headlines. Its sharp cuts and dense color add a stern, dramatic voice suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in display settings by combining condensed proportions with aggressively cut serifs and chamfered stroke endings. The consistent faceting suggests a deliberate attempt to mimic engraved or cut lettering for a distinctive, decorative headline voice.
Uppercase forms read especially strong and uniform in blocks, while the lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic, sign-painter-like shapes that keep the texture lively. Numerals match the same chiseled construction and maintain a consistent, sturdy presence alongside the letters.
