A robust slab-serif with heavy, squared terminals and broad, block-like proportions. Strokes are largely even in weight with subtle modulation, creating a solid, poster-ready texture. The serifs read as firm horizontal slabs with crisp joins, and counters are relatively open for the weight, helping maintain clarity in dense settings. Round letters (O, C, G) stay fairly geometric and full, while diagonals (V, W, X) are thick and strongly anchored, giving the overall alphabet a stable, planted rhythm.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of text where impact and solidity are desired, such as posters, signage, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for editorial display—subheads, pull quotes, and section openers—where a strong slab-serif voice helps structure the page.
The tone feels confident and workmanlike, with a classic American slab-serif flavor that suggests utility, heritage, and straight-ahead messaging. Its weight and squared details convey authority and practicality more than delicacy, leaning into a bold, no-nonsense presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold slab-serif presence that stays legible and visually stable at display sizes, emphasizing strong geometry, sturdy serifs, and a consistent, high-impact texture.
In the sample text, the heavy serifs and strong horizontal elements create pronounced word shapes and a dark overall color, making it especially effective at larger sizes. The lowercase maintains a sturdy, compact feel with minimal flourish, keeping the style consistent across long lines of copy.
