A heavy slab-serif with broad, blocky letterforms and a lively, slightly irregular rhythm. Strokes stay consistently thick with minimal modulation, while the slabs read as robust and mostly square-ended, often with subtly softened or bracketed joins that keep the texture from feeling rigid. Counters are generous for the weight, and curves (C, O, S) are full and round, contrasted by sturdy verticals and flattened terminals; the overall spacing and widths vary enough to give a hand-set, display-oriented color.
Best suited to display settings where its weight and slabs can do the work: posters, bold headlines, packaging, and storefront-style signage. It can also support logo wordmarks and short promotional copy where a retro, tactile presence is desired.
The face projects a warm, nostalgic tone with a hint of print-shop grit. Its chunky slabs and bouncy proportions feel approachable and a bit mischievous, balancing sturdiness with casual charm rather than formal precision.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, vintage slab-serif voice—combining sturdy, square-ended structures with softened details to evoke traditional print and hand-set type in contemporary display use.
In text, the heavy serifs and deep joins create a strong, dark typographic color that holds together well in short lines and headlines. Numerals and capitals carry the same stout, poster-ready construction, and the overall silhouette favors impact over delicate detail.
