A heavy, compact slab serif with squared-off terminals and thick, even strokes. The serifs read as bold blocks with minimal bracketing, giving letters a stamped, carved feel. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend toward closed, while joins and inner corners show subtle notches that help keep forms distinct at display sizes. Overall proportions are condensed and upright, with a steady rhythm and strong, rectangular silhouettes across letters and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short, high-impact text where its dense weight and blocky slabs can do the work—such as posters, brand marks, product packaging, and signage. It can also serve as a strong accent face in editorial layouts when used sparingly at larger sizes.
The font projects a tough, no-nonsense tone with a distinctly retro print flavor. Its dense blackness and squared slabs evoke utilitarian signage, wood-type posters, and industrial labeling, lending an assertive and slightly rugged personality.
Designed to deliver maximum presence in a compact footprint, pairing bold slab serifs with squared terminals for a stable, attention-grabbing texture. The overall construction suggests an aim toward classic, print-rooted display typography that remains legible under heavy weight.
Uppercase shapes lean on broad verticals and simplified geometry, while the lowercase maintains a solid, readable structure without becoming delicate. Numerals are equally weighty and built for impact, matching the headline-oriented color of the letters.
