A compact, heavy serif design with pronounced slab-like serifs and mostly squared terminals. Strokes are sturdy and even, with minimal modulation, producing a solid color on the page. The letters show slightly softened corners and occasional small notches/cut-ins where strokes meet, adding a stamped or carved character. Proportions are tight and efficient, with relatively narrow forms and short extenders, creating a dense, economical rhythm in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited for display typography where impact and character are priorities: posters, bold headlines, branding marks, packaging, and signage. The dense, sturdy shapes also make it effective for short subheads or callouts where a vintage or workmanlike feel is desired.
The overall tone reads as vintage and utilitarian, evoking printed posters, old shop signage, and workwear labels. Its blunt slabs and compact build give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that feels sturdy and a bit nostalgic.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, condensed display voice with slab authority and a classic printed texture, balancing strong legibility with a distinctive, old-style poster and label aesthetic.
Capitals are broad-shouldered and emphatic, while the lowercase keeps a chunky, straightforward construction that holds up well at display sizes. Numerals match the same blocky logic, appearing strong and legible with a poster-like presence.
