A heavy, block-constructed serif with sharply chamfered corners and a carved, beveled feel. Strokes are largely monolinear, with rectangular counters and small interior cut-ins that add a notched, engraved texture to many letters. Proportions are compact and sturdy, with a tall x-height and short ascenders/descenders that keep lowercase forms squat and punchy. Serifs are minimal and integrated into the geometry rather than bracketed, reinforcing a rigid, poster-like rhythm across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited to large-scale display settings such as posters, headlines, brand marks, team or event graphics, and bold packaging. It can also work for labels and signage where a compact, high-impact word shape is desirable, but it is less suited to long passages at small sizes due to its dense interior spaces.
The overall tone is bold and emphatic, combining a vintage display presence with a rugged, workwear confidence. Its angular cut corners and stencil-like nicks evoke signage, sports markings, and old-school headline typography that feels loud and declarative rather than delicate or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a rigid, machined geometry while still signaling a serif tradition via small, integrated terminals. The beveled chamfers and interior nicks suggest a deliberate “cut” or “carved” motif, aiming for a strong, heritage-leaning display voice rather than neutral text typography.
The design favors squared-off curves and hard joins, producing a highly uniform texture in words. Small apertures and tight counters—especially in letters like a, e, s, and the numerals—suggest it will read best when given generous size or spacing in dense layouts.
