A heavy, block-forward slab serif with even stroke weight and broad proportions. The design uses squared-off terminals and thick, rectangular serifs that read as integrated extensions of the stems rather than delicate finishing details. Counters are compact and geometric, with rounded bowls kept tight against wide stems, producing a dense, ink-trap-free silhouette at text sizes. The overall rhythm is regular and highly consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, emphasizing a measured, mechanical cadence.
Best suited to display applications where bold presence and uniform rhythm are desirable, such as headlines, posters, signage, and packaging. It can also work for short text blocks or UI labels when a sturdy, mechanical voice is needed and spacing is managed to avoid a heavy overall color.
The tone is forceful and pragmatic, with a distinctly industrial and typewriter-adjacent character. Its blunt slabs and squared forms give it a no-nonsense, workmanlike feel that can read as retro, authoritative, or rugged depending on setting and spacing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a straightforward, engineered construction: broad letterforms, consistent stroke logic, and emphatic slab serifs that hold up in dense compositions. It prioritizes clarity and a strong graphic footprint over delicate detailing.
In the sample text, the thick horizontals and pronounced slab feet create strong line structure and clear word shapes, especially in mixed case. Numerals appear similarly weighty and stable, matching the letterforms without looking like a separate system.
