A heavy, compact slab-serif with squared terminals and a mostly rectangular construction. Strokes are low-contrast with broad, blunt serifs and minimal bracketing, creating a strong, stamped silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and round forms (C, O, e) read as squared-off ovals, while joins and corners stay crisp. Overall spacing feels firm and economical, with consistent weight and a steady rhythm that favors impact over delicacy.
Works best in display sizes where its heavy slabs and compact shapes can project clearly—headlines, posters, labels, and signage. It can also suit logos and wordmarks that need a sturdy, industrial presence, and short editorial callouts where strong emphasis is desired.
The tone is assertive and practical, evoking utilitarian signage, vintage printing, and straightforward editorial emphasis. Its blocky slabs and compact proportions give it a no-nonsense, confident voice that feels dependable and slightly retro.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual authority in a compact footprint, combining slab-serif stability with squared terminals for a bold, print-forward look. It prioritizes solidity and clarity of silhouette, aiming for dependable impact in branding and display typography.
Capitals appear especially sturdy with prominent slab feet and tops, while lowercase maintains the same squared logic with simple, robust forms. Numerals match the set with chunky construction and clear, strong silhouettes suited to attention-grabbing settings.
