A condensed serif with sturdy, squared slabs and a compact, vertical stance. Strokes are broadly even, with minimal modulation and a dense, poster-friendly color. Serifs read as blocky and functional, often with subtle bracketing and occasional notched/ink-trap-like corners that sharpen joins. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are restrained, giving the face a firm, compressed rhythm while keeping lowercase proportions balanced and readable.
Well-suited to space-constrained headlines and poster typography where a strong, condensed voice is needed. It also works effectively for signage, packaging, and label systems that benefit from sturdy serifs and high-impact word shapes, especially at larger sizes where the squared details and tight rhythm read clearly.
The overall tone feels tough and workmanlike, with a hint of old-style signage and frontier print. Its narrow, emphatic shapes project authority and urgency, making text feel direct and no-nonsense. The squared detailing adds a mechanical, stamped quality that leans vintage-industrial rather than refined or delicate.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence in a narrow footprint, combining slab-serif solidity with crisp, squared finishing for a utilitarian display voice. The emphasis appears to be on punchy legibility and consistent, sign-painter/letterpress-like character in short text settings.
The set shows consistent vertical stress and a strong baseline presence, with capitals that dominate and narrow internal space that increases perceived weight in text. Numerals share the same compact build and slab structure, supporting cohesive use in headlines, labels, and price/number-heavy layouts.
