A heavy slab-serif with broad proportions, compact counters, and strongly bracketed slabs that read as thick, rectangular terminals. Strokes are mostly uniform but show a subtle, noticeable modulation that helps keep the forms from feeling purely geometric. The uppercase is built from sturdy, squared structures with rounded inner corners, while the lowercase is robust and readable with chunky bowls, short ascenders/descenders, and wide, stable shoulders. Numerals are equally weighty and sit firmly on the baseline, matching the letterforms’ dense color and confident rhythm.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, sturdy voice is needed. It also fits packaging and labels, editorial pull quotes, and signage that benefits from bold letterforms with clear slab cues. In longer passages it can work best when set with comfortable line spacing to balance the dense stroke color.
The font projects a tough, no-nonsense tone with a classic, workhorse personality. Its weight and slabs evoke heritage printing and industrial signage, while the rounded joins add a friendly, approachable warmth beneath the assertiveness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through thick slabs, compact interiors, and wide, stable proportions, combining a traditional slab-serif foundation with enough contrast and rounding to remain legible and personable. It aims to function as a reliable, attention-grabbing display face that still holds together in short blocks of text.
Spacing appears generous enough to prevent the heavy strokes from clumping, producing an even texture in paragraphs. The distinctive slab treatment and compact apertures make it especially impactful at display sizes, while the consistent heft keeps a strong typographic “stamp” in short text settings.
