A sturdy slab-serif with a forward slant and an even, low-contrast stroke. Serifs are heavy and blocky with slight bracketing, and many terminals show subtly softened corners rather than razor-sharp cuts. The face has a broad, steady rhythm and generous interior spaces, with a consistent, utilitarian texture across caps, lowercase, and figures. Overall proportions feel robust and slightly condensed in the bowls, producing a dark, confident line of text without delicate modulation.
It performs well in short-to-medium headlines, posters, and pull quotes where a bold, vintage-leaning slab presence is desired. The steady spacing and sturdy shapes also suit packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a dependable, industrial tone.
The tone is practical and hands-on, evoking mechanical printing and classic typewriter or stamped-letter aesthetics. Its chunky slabs and casual slant give it an approachable, slightly nostalgic character while still feeling assertive and durable.
The design appears intended to deliver a durable slab-serif voice with an energetic slant, balancing strong rectangular serifs with softened details for readability and warmth. It aims for a familiar, print-driven personality that stays consistent across letters and numbers.
Capitals read as firm and architectural, while the lowercase introduces more movement and warmth through curved joins and lively italic forms. Numerals share the same heavy footing and simple construction, supporting a cohesive, no-nonsense voice in mixed alphanumeric settings.
