A condensed, rectilinear slab serif with heavy, monolinear strokes and sharply squared terminals throughout. The letterforms are built from tight vertical stems and flat horizontal bars, producing a strongly modular, almost machined silhouette. Counters are small and angular, with frequent right-angle notches and cut-ins that create a slightly stencil-like rhythm. Spacing appears compact and consistent, and the overall texture in text is dense and dark with crisp edges.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and display settings where a dense, high-impact texture is desirable. It can work well for signage, branding marks, and packaging that benefits from an industrial or vintage-mechanical tone, and it holds up particularly well in short phrases and large-scale typography.
The font reads as bold and utilitarian, with a retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of signage, stamping, and engineered labeling. Its squared geometry and compact proportions give it an assertive, no-nonsense voice that feels strong, regimented, and slightly nostalgic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a condensed footprint, using squared slabs and modular construction to create a sturdy, industrial display voice. The notched, rectilinear detailing suggests an aim toward a distinctive, engineered look that stays legible and consistent in bold applications.
In running text, the tight apertures and heavy color emphasize impact over comfort, especially at smaller sizes. The squared joins and repeated right-angle motifs create a distinctive patterning that becomes a key part of its personality in headlines.
