A heavy, slab-serif design with broad proportions and a compact, blocky silhouette. Strokes are low-contrast and largely monolinear, with prominent rectangular serifs and square-cut terminals that give the letters a firmly engineered feel. Counters are open and generously sized for the weight, while curves (C, O, S) read as smooth but strongly supported by straight-sided, slabby joins. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, workmanlike construction with a sturdy i/j, a single-storey g, and a strong rhythm that remains consistent across text.
Best suited to headlines and subheads where the strong slabs and broad stance can carry presence, and it also performs well for editorial callouts and short blocks of copy that benefit from a dense, confident texture. The sturdy forms make it a good fit for packaging, labels, and signage where clarity and impact matter.
The overall tone is sturdy and no-nonsense, leaning industrial and editorial. It feels confident and utilitarian, with a slightly retro, print-forward character driven by the pronounced slabs and dense color on the page.
This font appears designed to deliver a forceful, highly legible slab-serif voice with a practical, print-oriented rhythm. The emphasis on square terminals, substantial serifs, and even stroke weight suggests an intention to feel durable and authoritative while staying readable in both display and text-like settings.
In paragraph settings the face produces a dark, even texture with clear word shapes, while the wide capitals and chunky serifs add emphasis in headings. Numerals match the same robust construction and read clearly at display sizes.
