A heavy, compact slab serif with squared-off terminals and a dense, poster-ready color. Strokes are largely uniform, with thick rectangular serifs and blunt ends that keep counters tight and forms highly graphic. Curves are simplified into sturdy, rounded-rectangle shapes, and the overall rhythm is compact with short ascenders/descenders and a prominent, even baseline presence. The lowercase follows the same blocky construction, with single-storey forms and straightforward joins that emphasize solidity over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and branding where a compact, hard-working slab voice is desired. It also performs well for signage and short bursts of copy that need immediate impact, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The tone is bold and declarative, evoking workmanlike signage and classic American display typography. It feels confident and a bit nostalgic, with a no-nonsense presence that reads as rugged, practical, and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight and punch in a condensed footprint, using square-ended slabs and simplified curves to maintain a firm, graphic silhouette. Its construction prioritizes strong texture and quick recognition for display settings over subtlety for extended reading.
At larger sizes the strong serifs and squared details create a distinctive texture; at smaller sizes the tight counters and dense weight can make interior spaces close up and reduce clarity in long passages. The figures match the same robust, blunt construction, reinforcing a consistent, heavy display voice across letters and numerals.
