A compact, heavy display slab with blocky construction and squared-off terminals. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with sturdy rectangular serifs and minimal modulation. Counters are tight and geometry leans toward straight-sided forms with occasional broad curves, producing a dense, emphatic texture. The lowercase maintains a tall, sturdy profile with short extenders and a weighty, consistent rhythm across letters and numerals.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where impact and presence are the priority. It works well on posters, signage, packaging, and label-style applications where a compact, rugged slab can hold attention at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and workmanlike, suggesting industrial labeling and vintage poster typography. Its dense color and squared details give it a no-nonsense, utilitarian voice that reads as confident and slightly retro.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in a condensed footprint, combining sturdy slab details with simplified, squared terminals for clear, assertive display typography.
Spacing appears compact, creating a strong horizontal banding in text. The design emphasizes stability over delicacy, with robust joins and a deliberately chunky silhouette that keeps shapes legible under heavy weight.
