A heavy, blocky slab-serif with bracketed terminals and softly rounded corners that keep the dense weight from feeling harsh. The serifs are broad and rectangular, while curves (notably in C, G, O, and the lowercase bowls) are generously rounded, creating a clear contrast between straight, engineered stems and bulbous bowls. Counters run on the compact side, and joins are thick and confident, producing a strong, poster-like texture. Numerals follow the same chunky, simplified construction for consistent color in mixed text.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of text where weight and presence are desirable—posters, signage, packaging, and bold editorial callouts. It also works well for logos and wordmarks that need a sturdy, friendly voice, and for numerals in large-scale applications such as numbering, labels, and price/quantity callouts.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, combining workmanlike sturdiness with a slightly playful, vintage warmth. Its chunky slabs and rounded forms evoke classic display typography—confident and attention-grabbing without becoming aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a classic slab-serif foundation, using rounded curves and bracketed slabs to stay readable and personable. Its construction prioritizes a strong silhouette and consistent texture for display typography in both print and on-screen uses.
The face maintains a consistent rhythm across uppercase and lowercase, with particularly heavy terminals and stable baseline presence. In longer settings the dense strokes create a dark typographic color, so generous tracking and leading help preserve clarity when used at smaller sizes.
