A compact, heavy slab-serif display face with a condensed footprint and tall lowercase proportions. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with squared-off slabs and flattened terminals that create a firmly mechanical silhouette. Many curves are treated as faceted, near-octagonal forms, and several glyphs show deliberate internal notches/splits that read like stencil breaks, adding texture without reducing overall mass. Counters are small and tight, producing a dense, high-impact rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where density and impact are desirable—posters, event graphics, product packaging, and bold signage. It can also work well for logo wordmarks and labels that want a tough, vintage-industrial flavor, especially when set with generous tracking or ample surrounding whitespace.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, combining a frontier poster feel with an industrial, stamped-sign sensibility. Its faceted shapes and stencil-like cuts add a rugged, utilitarian character that feels assertive and slightly nostalgic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in a condensed space, using slab-like terminals and faceted geometry to evoke classic display lettering. The stencil-like interruptions and tight counters suggest an aim toward rugged, print-forward graphics that hold up in bold applications.
The uppercase has a strong, monolithic presence, while the lowercase maintains the same blocky construction and stays highly legible at headline sizes. Numerals follow the same squared, heavyweight logic, keeping the set consistent for poster-style composition.
