A heavy, display-oriented slab serif with compact counters and prominent rectangular serifs that read as strongly bracketed blocks. The letterforms combine rounded bowls with squared terminals and frequent notched joinery, creating a cut-in, high-impact silhouette. Stroke contrast is noticeable, with stout verticals and thick slab feet that keep the rhythm dense and weighty. Overall proportions are expansive and low-contrast in spacing, giving words a solid, wall-like texture at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short statements where maximum impact is desired. It also works well for packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a sturdy, tactile slab-serif presence. For longer passages, it performs better in brief blocks or pull quotes with comfortable spacing.
The tone is forceful and attention-grabbing, with a utilitarian, slightly retro flavor reminiscent of bold print and industrial signage. Its sharp notches and chunky slabs add a punchy, no-nonsense character that feels confident and a bit rugged.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold, high-visibility slab-serif voice with deliberate cut-in details to add texture and distinction. Its wide stance and dense weight suggest an emphasis on attention and authority rather than quiet readability.
In text lines the dark color builds quickly, so generous tracking and larger sizes help preserve internal shapes. The squared slabs and cut-in details are most legible when the font has room to breathe, where the distinctive notches become a stylistic feature rather than visual noise.
