A sturdy slab-serif design with heavy, squared-off serifs and mostly uniform stroke weight. Letterforms are broad and open, with generous counters and a steady rhythm that reads clearly at display and text sizes. Serifs are prominent and blunt, with slight softening/bracketing that keeps joins from feeling overly rigid. Curves are round but controlled, while terminals and horizontal strokes maintain a machined, flat-ended feel throughout.
Well suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and identity work where a bold, solid slab presence is desired. It can also serve in short-form editorial settings—subheads, pull quotes, or captions—when you want a classic, print-forward texture without relying on high contrast details.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and workmanlike, with a retro, print-oriented character reminiscent of stamps, poster slabs, and typewriter-era signage. Its bold slabs and wide stance convey confidence and durability rather than delicacy, giving text a straightforward, no-nonsense voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable slab-serif voice with strong presence and high legibility, pairing industrial sturdiness with a familiar, vintage-print texture. Its broad proportions and emphatic serifs suggest it was drawn to stand up in impactful typographic layouts and straightforward messaging.
The uppercase set appears particularly strong and poster-ready, while the lowercase maintains sturdy proportions and clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals follow the same robust, blocky construction, helping mixed alphanumeric settings stay visually consistent.
