A heavy slab serif with unbracketed, rectangular serifs and mostly even stroke weight. Forms are compact and strongly structured, with squared-off terminals that are subtly softened by rounded corners and generous ink-trap-like joins. Counters are relatively tight, and the overall rhythm is dense and steady, producing a dark, authoritative texture in text. Numerals and capitals read cleanly with broad proportions and solid, blocky geometry.
Best suited to headlines, titles, posters, and display typography where a strong, confident voice is needed. It can also work for short editorial bursts (pull quotes, subheads) and for branding or packaging that benefits from a sturdy, vintage-leaning slab serif presence.
The tone feels sturdy and workmanlike, with a clear nod to vintage printing and utilitarian signage. Its bold, no-nonsense shapes suggest reliability and a slightly nostalgic, mid-century editorial character rather than delicate sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and legibility through robust slabs, compact proportions, and consistent stroke logic, capturing a classic, utilitarian print feel while staying clean and highly readable at display sizes.
Across the alphabet, the serif treatment is consistent and emphatic, giving strong baseline anchoring and firm horizontal accents. The lowercase maintains a compact footprint and a solid presence, helping paragraphs hold together as a cohesive, high-contrast block on the page.
