A tightly condensed, all-caps–leaning slab serif with tall, rectangular proportions and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes are consistently heavy with minimal modulation, and terminals resolve into flat, square slabs that read as sturdy and mechanical. Counters are compact and mostly rectangular, with sharp interior corners and occasional angled joins that add a chiseled feel. The lowercase follows the same narrow architecture, producing dense, even texture in words while keeping edges crisp and aligned.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where vertical punch and compact width are advantages—posters, headlines, storefront-style signage, and bold branding marks. It can also work for labels and packaging where a vintage-industrial voice is desired and space is limited.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, evoking vintage signage and stamped or stenciled industrial lettering without overt distress. Its narrow, towering silhouettes give it a commanding presence and a slightly theatrical, old-time flavor suited to display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint, pairing heavyweight slabs and squared geometry for a strong, legible display voice. Its consistent construction suggests a focus on uniform texture and decisive, sign-like letterforms.
Spacing appears tight and the condensed fit amplifies vertical emphasis, making long lines feel compact and energetic. The numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, squared construction that supports clear, high-impact titling.
