A heavy slab serif with broad proportions, rounded corners, and strongly bracketed, rectangular serifs. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing solid, compact counters and a dense color on the page. Curves are generously softened (notably in C, G, S, and O), while verticals and horizontals stay firm and stable; joints and terminals read as blunted and supportive rather than sharp. Overall spacing is even and workmanlike, favoring legibility and impact over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines and short text where weight and presence matter—posters, packaging, signage, and bold brand lockups. It can also work for subheads and callouts in editorial layouts when paired with a lighter companion that provides contrast.
The tone is robust and approachable, with a retro, poster-like sturdiness that feels confident and straightforward. Its softened slabs and rounded geometry add warmth, giving it an inviting, slightly nostalgic voice rather than a formal or austere one.
The design appears intended as a dependable, high-impact slab serif that reads quickly and projects strength, while using rounded detailing and bracketed slabs to keep the overall feel friendly and approachable.
At display sizes the thick serifs and tight inner shapes create a strong, emblematic presence; at smaller sizes the dense counters and heavy joins may benefit from a bit more breathing room in layout. Numerals share the same chunky construction and rounded slabs, keeping the set visually cohesive in headings and signage-style applications.
